[QUOTE="HanginginThere, post: 711921, member: 21562"] Enable, my son has been homeless for some months now. He's been sleeping in the woods behind a store. It breaks my heart that this has been happening but it's because of the choices he has made. Like you, I came to a point where it was either to continue enabling him or think about my health and let him find his way on his own. It's not easy because many people will tell me what a terrible mother I am but if all my support didn't help him then it's time to try something new. Insanity has been described as "doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result." Just like my 25 year old son, your son is not a baby anymore. Try to think about yourself for once and let him deal with his own choices. It's a painful journey but a necessary one for both of you. [/QUOTE]
