Unfortunately the laws of mother nature will take over eventually. The weak will perish.

I have a friend that supports this theory, that if left to their own devices they will either get their life together, or they will not make it in the world.

Look at nature and you won't find a mother robin feeding an adult bird, and keeping a nest available for him to stay in. We as humans don't follow natural order, and keep the weak in the gene pool. That is a harsh statement, in our society today, but if you think about it, it's true.

Enabling does just postpone the inevitable, straighten up, and fly right, isn't just a saying, it's just repeating the laws of nature.

If hunter biden was left with no support system, chances are he would have perished by this time. Biden has just delayed the inevitable by baling him out and giving him money, and a place to stay.

If a person has no will to get their life together, no outside influence has much of a chance to change that. The motto "Change comes from within" is still a true statement. I believe that a parent that has made the efforts to try too help offspring, and been unsuccessful, they can't take the guilt upon themselves, that they failed the offspring somehow. The truth is, the offspring has failed, not the parents.

One of the best things that can help change a persons downward spiral is finding God. That seems to me the only outside influence that can make a person change their outlook. at least in my experience, YMMV.

I had a cousin, a few years younger than myself that went down the long road to self destruction. No matter what his mother (my aunt) did it turned out the same. Towards the end, a doctor told him one more bender on alcohol would kill him, that's what he chose, and it did. Previously he got drunk and walked out into traffic and was hit by a car. That caused brain damage, and further hastened the process. Seems if a person is bent on self destruction, no one but the person who is responsible for their life can make the decision to live, or die.

My ex wife was an alcoholic, so I have lived the ups and downs of dealing with this. I finally divorced, and from what I understand she has quit drinking, but nothing I said or did made any difference for 25 years, so I finally quit trying to save her. She must have decided to save herself, because I was unsuccessful at it.

I know this is harsh, but in my experiences, it's true
