[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 746964, member: 18958"] Your son is mentally ill. That does not mean that you should tolerate any of this, but it gives you a context to understand it. I think that your enduring this even 1 percent is bad for you and especially bad for your son. I believe that he can get treatment that would likely stabilize him, that who he is in his present state is manic, even psychotic. I agree with RE here:To tolerate the abuse in a way is to sanction it. I think your love for yourself, and self-care also demonstrates deep love and commitment for your son. To the son who can accept treatment and benefit from it. To the bottom line that he can be somebody who can control himself and be appropriate to others. My son mistreats me the most. Why? Because I am most likely to be the one who takes it. This, to me, is enabling my son to behave poorly. It is absolutely contrary to belief in him. Belief in my son would mean that I draw the line at any bad behavior. Mentally ill or not. [/QUOTE]
