[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 557234, member: 13542"] Anticipating his needs, in my opinion, is a part of enabling him. If he needs you to give him money for gas, he'll ask you and then you can do as Hearts and Roses suggests and simply fill up his tank that day and require him to pay you back in some fashion. He has to begin being resourceful if he is to survive on his own. It's a tough lesson for us parents too since we're so used to helping them. [/QUOTE]
