[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 750708, member: 17635"] Chase, husband and I lived exactly this way with our Difficult Child for years until a few weeks after finding this forum. There is no reason to. Step out of it. As Busy said, what difference does it make anyway? Years ago, a wise CD member wrote something along these lines to me: "If your son changes, he will find a way to let you know." That advice has made all the difference in the world to husband and me. Your life will improve immeasurably once you step away. Give it up. It is not helping. Let him know you love him...Then take your life back. No more following instructions, etc. Believe me: husband and I did the same numerous times.....wanting Difficult Child to know we cared, how much we loved him.... <sigh> A lot of pain for us and no help to anyone....
