[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There seems to be two distinct camps. Those who feel that the adult children are adults and those who feel that they are still children. You can love your kids and still expect basic respect. [/quote] Not sure where you got that idea. My 21 year old is an adult, not a child. YET, he still needs guidance, support, and structure due to underlying mental health issues. There are not two distinct camps. There are shades of gray, that's what many are saying here. 18 or high school graduation is not a magic cut off date where kids stop needing parental help. Yes they are legal adults, but many are still a good distance away from being fully independent. - not OP[/quote] Not about your kid. Also 21 is very different than 26/28. Make your own thread. - not OP[/quote] Don't be rude. If OP had gotten her sons help at 20-21 then maybe they'd be in a better predicament today. [/quote]
