I don't think we EVER stop thinking about our children and where their futures lie. My mom worries about my brother.. she is 66 and he is 44 and not got his life togetehr like we once did.

I think letting our children go and live as they want to, allowing them to make their own descisions, it isn't the same thing as hoping and praying for them to find their way to a good, safe lifestyle.I would be absolutely frantic if my 22 year old son was out living as your son is.

Is there any possibility that part of you would like to have lived just a little while as he is living now.. carefree? Just a thought. Perhaps that would be part of the obsession?

Good Luck!
