I am heading to confront my son today. He has spent all of his school money with two months of school left. He has called me for money again and again. He has partied away, and now he wants me to pay. I have been reading on this site again, trying to strengthen my resolve. I will tell him I love him, but I am done with him until he chooses to get some help. I will not pay for his rent, groceries or anything else. Please pray for me. He is 22 and very angry. I have been dealing with this since he was 14.

You are doing the right thing. He is a man now, even if he has a tantrum like a petulant 14yo. It is good for men to earn their own food and rent. The angrier they are about it, the better it is for them.

(((krhea))) - hugs and prayers that you will be able to allow him the dignity of dealing with his consequences. It's not easy, but I'm glad my family did that with me when I was using.

Hugs and prayers,

I agree, it is time to allow him the dignity to handle his life on his own terms, he is an adult, time for him to grow up!

Sending support your way.
