Summary

Send Erica a text

They need gas money. They need rent money. They need you to fix the thing they broke because of the choice you told them not to make. And if you say no, you're the worst mom alive. If you say yes, nothing changes. You've been on this ride before. You know how it ends.

Erica gets painfully honest about the day she kicked her son out of the house and what she got wrong in the process. She shares her friend Faye's gut-wrenching decision to drop her daughter and two grandkids at a women's shelter, and what Faye's daughter said about it years later that silenced the room.

You'll learn four signs that your help has crossed into enabling, why your child's entitled reaction when you say no tells you more than their request does, and what time-bound, role-building support actually looks like in real life, including the gas money conversation that almost ruined Erica's birthday.

Bailing them out feels like love. But it might be the very thing keeping them from the Savior who can actually change them from the inside out.
