Is this Enabling?

by Brenda
(Kentucky)

My in-laws are providing everything for my husbands new apartment. He has decided he wants a divorce and is moving out on his own. Problem is he has a mental problem/issue. He is seeing a psychiatrist in a couple of weeks. Possible bipolar/sex addiction/depression. Won't know for sure till he sees the doc.

I say they are enabling him to move out and not accept the consequences of his actions by helping him totally supply his new apartment. Their words - don't buy a thing. My sister in law agrees with me. My mother in law says it isn't enabling. What do you think?
