[quote=Anonymous]My son is in a similar situation (for the last six months, he’s 23) and it gives me anxiety that he will never get on track and I would be facilitating that failure. But then I remind myself that he will only move forward effectively if it is his choice, I can’t make him want something. I want him to WANT independence but it is not independence if it’s my idea, not his. I can’t make him responsible for managing my anxiety about him. He pays rent, he cleans up after himself, he makes his own meals, and leaves the house weekdays 9-4. That’s all I ask. [/quote]
