[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And you are involved in what way? Did your son ask for your help? Butt out. [/quote]

Not OP, but this is a weird response.  OP clearly indicated that her son was talking to her about it.

There is a difference between trying to control and adult child, and being someone that they come to for advice and to talk things through.  I certainly hope my kids do that when they are grown.  I know I STILL go to my parents in that capacity and I am approaching 50.[/quote]

The difference, however, is in this case, OP has an opinion about her. Her ability to provide objective non-biased feedback is already compromised. [/quote]

[b]What? It is her son, of course she has a “non biased feedback”. [/b]

Op, I would encourage him to take his time and think about the life he wants. It can be with her or not. Would he find a job there, have a career, make friends if he moved for her and it doesn’t work out with her? He is a BF at this point.

Maybe you are too dumb to understand this but... You got to let your kid grow up. That means you need to step aside and let him go his way. [/quote]
