I spoke yesterday with my aunt, who is my father’s younger sister, and she told me that my DS is currently staying with my father. My father told my aunt that DS could stay with him indefinitely until he figures out what he wants to do with his career. In the meantime, DS can spend whatever he wants, and my father will pay for it.

I asked DH to call DS and ask him to come home so we can work things out between us, but DH said no. I am really missing my DS. I haven’t spoken to my father in years because of the horrible things he put my mother through, but I may have to talk to him for the sake of my DS.[/quote]

Where did you get the bizarre idea that you have the right to tell your father, who you haven't spoken to in years, to kick your 22-year-old son out for his own good? If he was mooching off a girlfriend or wife, would you feel entitled to tell her to dump him? If he found an apartment for way under market rent, would you feel entitled to tell the landlord to evict him? If, god forbid, he were in a homeless shelter, would you try to make them put him on the street?

You don't get to veto your adult son's relationships with other people because you "miss" him. [/quote]
