My son and money

My son has always had problems managing his money and often finding himself in debt. When he goes into shutdown he just spends relentlessly without realising the consequences. Then becomes very depressed because he can’t afford to do anything. We have bailed him out to save him losing his job many times, how many times do we do this?

  • Thank you Peter that’s a very good idea, I will certainly try it. He has gone into shutdown again and blocked us on wats app, it’s so hard to know wat to do when he does this. Do we try snd contact him or leave him to come out of it. The reason he blocked us was because he said he had bought a motorbike because he wants danger in his life! Also I know he can’t afford it and so I told him wat a bad idea it was. He’s 30 now snd since the breskdown of his relationship he has become much worse and whereas he used to talk to me a lot he doesn’t speak much now, it’s heartbreaking when we have done so much for him to try and improve his life and it upsets me every day.
