[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 124528, member: 1967"] Jo, What I think your husband needs to realize is that all of those things can happen even if you let her stay in your home. If just keeping a child at home could keep them out of trouble, we wouldn't need this board in the first place. You know that I absolutely think you are doing the right thing. You have given her a second chance and she has not abided by a single thing that she agreed to in the contract. Letting her stay at home while drinking, drugging, and sleeping with her boyfriend gives her no incentive to make any changes in her life. The simple fact here is that she is an adult and can choose to live her life any way that she wants. However, if she is playing the adult card then she needs to go live like an adult with all of the adult responsibilities that come with it. Sending strength and hugs! ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
