Amber, welcome to the program.

Hi Dr. Laura,

thanks for taking my call.

Thank you.

I'm having a problem with my son who's 19.

I've had an estranged relationship with him for four and a half years because of a divorce. In January I started communicating with him

again and he issued a plea for help to get out of where he's

out with his father said he was unhappy and I moved him into a trailer three months

ago an RV in a camp site.

And he contacted me after a few questions

about something I could tell as a mom's instinct

is going wrong and I asked them what was going on and he said he was scared to tell me that he just went ahead and left the place that I had got him and put him in with him and his fiance and I just want to know like how should I deal with how hurt I am after all the things that I helped

him do without raining relationship I've been building.

Stop. You shouldn't have done most of those things.

So since you shouldn't have done most of those things, what the hell are you pissed off about?

Which thing I shouldn't have helped him? Is that what you mean?

No, if he's a grown man and he has a fiance, I don't expect a man with no means to have a fiance,

unless mommy and daddy are helping him be a boy instead

of become a man. That's great that is wonderful advice tell me what I should say

to my son please as like the most

personal thing you can tell me. Just ignore it? I'm not helping you anymore.
