GOD BLESS.... Jim, I took a similar stance on some things with my kids as well. I told them, at some point I will not bail them out of poor decision making and they will have to learn the hard way. It's a tough thing for a parent to do but they need to find their own boundaries on their own or they never will.

As tough as it was we had to tell him either go back or live on the streets. He went back after 4 days and has been sober and doing well for 5 months. Tough things to have do in life- hang in there!

I'll add that it doesn't matter what the issue is with children, the principles are the same. We're subjective human beings and as subjective people, we have a general tendency to take what we can get and constantly evolve our needs. As adults you learn to choose better with experience but children don't have that experience. As parents, it's our jobs to teach children their boundaries and those lessons are usually the toughest to teach them but they are also the most rewarding. Giving in to the wrong things will only reinforce to children that they can push those boundaries and exacerbate the issue. Holding your ground and sometimes saying no is the toughest thing I've had to do as a parent, but it really is the difference between good parenting and bad parenting, IMO. Great conversation. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
