[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 743664, member: 15032"] Sorry that you are dealing with this grown man child! Agree. Please stop rescuing your son. It's an illness yes but it's out of your hands. Even at bible study last night they talked about consequences of sin. We have to suffer consequences or we do not learn. And that statement has nothing to do with drugs or drinking but in your son's case it does. He needs to learn how to deal with rejection, which is part of life, that does not include drinking like a fish. Some people cannot drink in moderation. Period. Then they can't drink at all. He is on the fence. He wants a normal life (apartment, pet, etc.) but doesn't want to change. It's like they KNOW we are there when they are ready and we'll jump in "all hands on deck" so why rush? He has to do the work. We have done so much for our son and at times I wonder if he even appreciates it or realizes it. I'm talking to myself here too and in no way judging you but I now how bad it SUCKS! [/QUOTE]
