[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 685619, member: 15032"] UpandDown: I had looked the other way with my 20 year old son also. A little weed and a few beers seemed okay if he wasn't causing trouble but with us it escalated. Sometimes you just get so tired and have to pick your battles...I know. It is horrible to live in a house where kid(s) run the show though and we did that too. It sounds crazy because we both have pretty strong personalities and are pretty particular about things. Thankfully he is now an adult and we are no longer doing that and while he is still tethered to us, he is making his own way. It's still a long road for us but much better. Until they are adults all you can do is what you can do. We did all the interventions etc. and looking back don't know how we could have done any better than we did. I just kept praying and continue to do so. That gives me comfort. Do whatever you need to do to keep your sanity. [/QUOTE]
