[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 498511, member: 1514"] Well that is a lot to go through in a short period of time. I am very sorry. I know how hard it is to lose your parent suddenly like that. My dad died just a year ago and I am still hurting quite a bit. My difficult child took it very hard too. With all that your son just went through with the girlfriend and the odd stuff with the living conditions, his mental health stuff and now the legal situation, well I dont think it is wise for him to be living with you at all. From what I can remember of your personal situation, I dont think you have a ton of resources at your disposal which is my situation too. You live in a larger area from what your location lists so there should be some shelters in your area. If I were you, I would make your son go into one of the homeless shelters for men. Maybe you have a Y or a Salvation Army. I assume that you bailed your son out. If so, and you cant find anywhere else for your son to go besides your own house, revoke his bail. I know that sounds awful and like you dont care and arent a loving parent but it doesnt mean that at all. I have revoked my own sons bail before when things were just so bad at home and I couldnt put up with what was going on at home. You cannot deal with a grown adult terrorizing you and forcing you and your husband to hide in your own bedroom while your son goes on rampages. Its just not right. He will be better off either in a shelter or in jail. Jail is truly not that bad. They are safe and fed. Its not the Hilton but at least they arent under a bridge. This is just my opinion and you dont have to take it but I have been there with a very mouthy, angry, and defiant young difficult child adult male. He has turned his life around now but it took me sending him to jail several times over the years. [/QUOTE]
