My son turns 18 the end of this month. I believe his Father’s goal is to not to have to pay child support. His Father is an alcoholic,(conartist) lives temporarily 5 states away. Without a permanent/unstable job, And is dangeling gold carrots in front of my son to get him to move out of my house. I don’t know what to do or how to feel. I love my son with all my Heart. Also I am so sick of his father’s bullshit and thinking that child support pay’s for everything and that I just have a blast with the child support. Which is bullshit. This father is patially responsible (legally) for for medical bills which he has’nt paid. My end concern is my Son, and I know he must have so many mixed emotions. However I am so sick of his selfish unappreciative father who has got away with so much crap. What should I do how should I feel.

I have been with a man on and off. I believe he is back on meth, after 2 years clean. We were closer than ever. He included me in his sons life, his mom’s cancer, and was so loving. I just found out, he is seeing this meth wh*re. He changed greatly. He says, he was just using me for $. (he did start asking for $ a few months back) How can he be so loving and close then boom he never loved me, was only using me? Is it because she is an addict and nasty and at his own level? Do you think that our 9 years together really never meant anything?
I KNOW I NEED TO MOVE ON. I AM TRYING, I JUST NEED TO EASE MY MIND BECAUSE MY HEART IS BREAKING.
My 46 yr. old alcoholic brother has been in and out of 3 rehabs now, several detox places, etc. It seems that as soon as he gets his head on relatively straight, makes goals for himself (good ones like finding a job to support himself and his daughter who lives far away in another country, etc etc etc) that he relapses within a few short hours/days after completing programs.
All of our family have tried to help him out by giving him food and shelter, SUPPORT, etc. for MANY years. I was pretty much THE ONLY ONE LEFT (with my husband and son)that would continue to take him in. The pros call me his ENABLER!!
Recently our 75 yr. old dad (ashamed to even call him his son) was diagnosed with cancer. He agreed to see him, then offered him a place to stay after the 60 day rehab–gave him $$, job offers. Soon as we got dad checked into the hosp., bro went on a 1 week binge, but finally call AA for help. They keep telling us we need to separate the emotions from his DISEASE. HOW???
