[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 670264, member: 15796"] husband and I have talked and talked with M and they are coming home after graduation. Now that she has treatment under her belt and is focused on building a life for herself and Connor, we are going to help her do that. She will work full time days and go to school at night (after she saves up for a car - I will never buy another car so that is her first goal. Luckily I work from home and will play taxi until she gets there.). We will help with Connor. There are a few reasons that we do not want Connor to stay at the ministry once she has completed. Not that it is a bad place - it is not and if it was just M, she would stay there. We sat down and filled out her exit plan with all of the rules and will have her exit interview at the ministry on November 6th. They will come home on November 22nd so I will have all of my family together for the holidays. :) If relapse happens, which as much faith as I have in her I would be a fool if I said it couldn't happen, she will go straight back to the ministry and she has completely agreed with that. Meanwhile she has been applying everywhere and has already got a call back from Kroger! It will be fantastic if she has a job waiting for her when she comes home. So I know it is a risk but we are willing to take that risk. We view it as an investment in her and our grandson's future. When I had her and our son I went to school while working full time. It was NOT easy and thank God I had my husband to raise the children but it was worth it in the end. We are willing and able to do the same for her. Wish us luck! :) [/QUOTE]
