[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 507740"] This board and all of you are such a blessing. I called the court clerk today. When she mentioned a continuance to me Friday, I thought she meant a month. No. She meant until the term of the semester. (God bless her.) May 1st. I have not yet shared this with difficult child who is very busy planning a 'drunkfest' for this evening, I suppose, as a send off as he thinks he may go to jail tomorrow. The book I just read - Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children really helped. I am writing out a list of what I will and won't do. Adding specific terms. Basically, at the end of this term, if he doesn't have a job, $ for this court date and $ to start paying me back for other things - then I will not support him in attending school this summer. He will be forced out of dorm. Will have to support himself. I will keep medical insurance on him (for now) but that is it. Going to get everything straight in my head and all on paper then sit with him and let him know. I don't like it but it is my only sane choice. The rest....up to him. [/QUOTE]
