[QUOTE="Bookie, post: 664255, member: 19438"] Wow. Reading all of your posts is mind boggling. I am new to this forum and all of this letting go and and feeling I am not doing the right thing is hard to deal with. My son will be 21 in Nov. I am a single mom and though his dad is around .....he's really not around. He was diagnosed with NLD in Kindergarden. My son doesn't want to grow up. He is angry. Scared. Emotional. Defiant. Nasty. I am his everything. We go to therapy. His social life is FB. His thoughts of life are delusional. Doesn't think things thru. His dad is helping with him getting a job but so laid back about it it's driving me crazy!!!! And my son doesn't want me to be a part of that. No drugs. No drinking. Just no motivation. Very dramatic. Fights structure ( which these kids need desperately). Can be so loving to me and then when I push or nag (because he does nothing!!!) he is so verbally abusive. I am very active and keep my life busy but he is so important to me. I am so overwhelmed and feel guilty for not being able to help him. He is such a good kid but he's a young immature child in a man's body. He says I'm the only one he trusts. [/QUOTE]
