Adult child becomes abusive & won't move
I'm a 56 yr old working woman who is going through a nasty divorce. My husband left after 30 years of marriage for a topless dancer. My 26 yr. old son told me what was going on and son lives at home with me, works some, goes to school some. He has been helpful & supportive for the most part but now is becoming more beligerant, confrontational, disrespectful to the max... I am embarrassed to say I pay his cell phone-family share plan, I co-signed car loan that has bal. of $6000 and he isn't paying so I pay since I don't want to have it effect my good credit. I asked him to pay rent, contribute to food, He's installing signs for several print shops. Says this is his business, but he can't pay rent because he waits to collect money and these companies are slow payers, etc. etc. I say, Jason, you need to move out I feel like I'm being held hostage. He's modeling my estranged husband's verbal abuse. I know I must chose tuff love, but Jason yells, becomes intimidating then when I break down I'm so distraught. He's the only family I have and I'm too emotional about this whole mess. Help! Advise! Thank-you, Sueboo
