[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 596345, member: 15796"] YOU are not homeless because YOU choose not to be! YOU do the right things; the things in life we all must do to function, survive, and be a contributing member of society. HE chooses to do the wrong things which have consequences that hoover. HE [I]could[/I] choose to do the right things and not be homeless, but HE chooses not to. No one can force him to do what he needs to do. Gosh, if only we could, huh?? My daughter would be a lawyer or a doctor!! But instead, she is sitting in the county jail where she has been for the last 35 days because SHE chose to break the law. Sure, I think she is starting to rethink her life choices now, but she had to sit in jail to get there. Nothing [I]I[/I] could do. You need to have a LIFE so he can see what he is missing. You need to take care of you so when he does choose to do right, you are in better shape to help him. In my opinion, we need to do ALL we can to support them doing the right things, but NOTHING to support the bad. He is an adult - you can ONLY control YOU. (((HUGS))) we are here for you!! [/QUOTE]
