[quote=Anonymous]Helping with college, a down payment, a wedding. Giving a graduation present or some other milestone sort of gift is not enabling in my book, it's helping. And help like that doesn't make an adult child dependent on their parents to financially support them. Regularly giving them money to cover bills. Paying for rehab -multiple times in/out over and over. Buying them luxuries that they are convinced they "need", Providing them with a roof over their head when they have the ability to provide for themselves (they just opt not to or prefer the one that you provide) - that is enabling. That is making them a forever kid. Assisting a seriously ill (mentally or physically) child is something very different. [/quote]
