[QUOTE="Star*, post: 338955, member: 4964"] I don't know either...other than what we had thought and was working due to him working, that is now falling apart because apparently everyone in the free world is broke except for money for drugs (ARGH) -and they don't pay their help in full. (nice way to teach a young man too) Is going down hill quickly...and while Dude agrees he has to get out too, there is no money FOR him to move, pay his probation and get out. Every cent he's made he's put on fines/probation and it's still not enough. Almost all the friends he has have moved in with their parents - all of them. They've all lost their jobs, two were living on the streets - one nearly died from an overdose; his parents found him and took him in I guess out of guilt. It's really bad here. Most of the fast food places have adults working in them not teenagers. It's kinda odd to go to a drive though and see all women my age working the line. Sad thing is we thought if we just let him go to jail? That would wipe out his fines and nope. He just sits there until it's paid. Not our problem, but wow. I'd like to be paid back at some point for some of the money we've handed him to help. He figures he can go to FL and work, have friends and make it. I'm not trying to keep him here, but I'm not going to fund his trip either. Done that twice...and back once. I hate money. [/QUOTE]
