[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 747130, member: 22877"] My son always gets defensive when I call him on his hypocritical attitudes and behaviors, and he, like your son, gets defensive, accuses me of dredging up the past (something he loves to do when he's reminding me of the "horrible" childhood I put him through...he doesn't know the meaning of a horrible childhood, but try telling him that...or has an excuse or rationale for his behavior. When he stole money from us his rationale was that he wasn't in his right mind, it was the meth. Yeah, I buy that and I get that, but it still boils down to he can't stay in our home anymore. The meth may explain why he stole but it doesn't excuse it and it doesn't mean he gets off scott free with no consequences or accountability. [/QUOTE]
