[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you abandon your child if they had the same problem? Family is family. You do what you can, but protect yourself and others from abuse and violence.[/quote] This isn’t a fair comparison. We remain loyal to our children because they can neither care for themselves financially and legally, but their brains are not developed enough to manage their own lives. When children act out emotionally, it is rarely to manipulate and usually out of a genuine need they are incapable of meeting on their own. As well, caring for a neurotypical child is a time-limited thing. (And many people do walk away from adult children who cannot manage addiction or mental health issues while being respectful of their family members.) [/quote]
