[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 740921, member: 1550"] I just told my son that I will be happy to talk to him as long as we have a mutually kind, respectful relationship, he does not swear or namecall and I can speak without being afraid I will say the wrong thing or have him hang up on me. I cant do anything else anymore. Son got mad and said he would block me. I told him that I love him and will be happy to talk to him if he is respectful but that if he doesnt find this possiblee then he has to do what he likes. I cant control him. So he hasnt called nor will I. I neither know nor care if I am blocked. My other kids were puzzled that I put up with him for as long as I have, son or not. He does not really care about anyone but himself and refuses to change. Your son will do what he wants to do. If he sets rules you can follow them. Or not. Like my son. But one thing you can not do is force him to dump the boyfriend. Another issue out of your control is the meth. He knows it is bad for him. I am very sorry. I know that we can only control ourselves. I have learned this. I no longer bother trying to change others. I do set my own boundaries. You cant control your son. Or know where he is or what he is doing if your son is not telling you. But you can count your blessings, be around kind loving people, and give your son to God's loving hands, if you believe. Trust the universe to steer his path. You deserve to have a good life, even if your son struggles. I hope you choose to have a good life. Love and light! [/QUOTE]
