[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 112463, member: 3626"] Guess there's two ways to look at it -- he's an adult, none of your business at this point, let him make his own decisions. Or, he's too immature/needy to make a good choice, I have to make it for him. You can give advice under the first scenario. Give him the pros and cons -- at least he would have a sponsor and, more importantly, a job. The cons you've listed above. If you feel the second route is the way you have to go, I'd be writing all of this to the judge, DA and his attorney. They do have some say-so as to where he ultimately ends up, right? Of course, you could invite him to come home. At least you know what he'd be doing etc. It does sound like someone needs to clue him in that seeing his son every day when he gets out is not going to happen and why it won't. Neither way is easy. I wish you the best. [/QUOTE]
