    This is a strange post. But yeah, a 13 year old is a child. Not an adult. Not sure what kind of enabling is going on? You'd need to clarify a little more of this situation for anyone to really be able to give you advice.

    Hello! If you're looking for ways to stop enabling your adult child, it can be a challenging process, but here are a few suggestions:

    1. Set clear boundaries: Clearly communicate your expectations and limits regarding financial and emotional support. Stick to these boundaries consistently.

    2. Encourage independence: Encourage your adult child to take responsibility for their own actions and decisions. Support their efforts to become self-sufficient and encourage them to find their own solutions.

    3. Foster personal growth: Encourage personal growth and development by promoting healthy habits, such as setting goals, pursuing education or career opportunities, and seeking therapy or counseling if needed.

    4. Seek support for yourself: Consider joining support groups or seeking professional advice to navigate this process effectively. Talking to others who have gone through similar situations can provide guidance and understanding.

    Remember, change takes time and patience. It's important to stay consistent and compassionate while allowing your adult child to take ownership of their life choices.
