Stop babying him. Bottom line. Allowance too?! Omg. Do you have a spare room available??? Lol. But really you need to stop treating him like a child and let him leave the nest OR at least pay rent and do work around the house.

Question is, why are you doing this? Is the fear of drugs the only reason? He's an adult and he's going to do what he wants and just because he lives in your home doesn't mean you can keep him under a rock from drugs. Are you just sympathetic about his learning problems? That's something that can be controlled and not an excuse for laziness or to be spoiled over.

You mention your own mental health. You really need to put yourself first here. He's an adult and honestly, if my dad paid my way I'd still be at home too. I think your son is taking advantage of you. He needs to get a job and learn independence and respect for you.

Please don't be offended by my words I was just being honest here and you've helped me out in my posts so I just returned the favor ((hugs))
