[quote=Anonymous]Don’t give up on him, but do detach more emotionally. You raised him right and did a ton of positive things. Be there as a sounding board and emergencies or guidance, but not to enable or be taken advantage of. Renew some friendships, hobbies, interests, have trips to look FW to, visit your other children or extended family. Continue to also lead by example. Not sure if “natural consequences” work with these types, especially if something like ADHD or ASD is involved. The belligerence and oppositional misbehavior is exhausting; I hope he finds a job and career with limited team work or verbal communications. [/quote]
