[quote=Anonymous]I think you say that his value as a person and a child isn't tied to how much money he is making. That all you care about is how happy he is, and that you love him exactly as he is - and are there to support him if and when he wants to try something else. It is very hard when you're struggling to stay afloat while everyone around you seems to be zipping along. He doesn't need you to observe or judge what he already feels. What does he actually want? Is he trying to figure that out? Has he asked you for help figuring that out? I would say stay out of it unless he's asking you for help, or you have some background or insight that would actually be useful. There is seriously nothing worse than feeling like you're failing, while your mom tries to give you terrible advice. It really just compounds a sh**ty situation, even if it's out of love.[/quote]
