[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 750725, member: 23706"] Wow. This was the same for me. Both of us. My husband and I had always done for Kay with no progress as far her wanting to live as an independent adult. As she hit her late 20s and then 30, I grew sadder and less hopeful that she would ever become a productive member of society. Her husband Lee as well. And they had a baby around then. Every year that Kay remained dependent, lazy and childish, my tolerance waned more. It helped me slowly detach as I could see that, but for our help, she would not have housing. Kay is of average intelligence and healthy. She has probably some mental illness, but she is capable of working somewhere. Lee can do more than deliver pizza. Maybe the pot holds them back the most. Their chronic unwillingness to even try, plus Kay's cruelty, finally helped us quit. The party is over. And her getting older but not better did help us be able to detach. I have bad days, but I am not inclined to give her my version of help any longer. [/QUOTE]
