[QUOTE="Ascending, post: 763493, member: 29778"] New update: The good: He continued to do well with work and got a promotion to a physically easier position ( in which he started putting on some weight for first time in life) that pays better and started early morning instead of graveyard shift . He was seeing a girl in an apparently budding relationship type way. He was doing a real estate online study course (though not very diligently), and talking about classes in business or toward electric training after work at community college. With the promotion he got himself a wonderful new Subaru that he loved and which would be reliable for getting to work, classes, and good for camping The bad: He started hanging with his old marijuana friends crowd again. On Thanksgiving evening he crashed and totaled his brand new wonderful vehicle. And apparently hit another vehicle. And now has legal issues of duii, reckless driving, reckless endangerment to contend with. He is still working and doing well at work. However he otherwise seems to be on more of a downward course than he was as of early Tgiving day, and in some denial about the potential seriousness of the charges and penalties. He also keeps losing things such as his wallet and all that’s in it. He is not being awful in behavior toward me like when I called 911 as this thread began ... but not great either. The return to using violated what he had agreed to when coming back home, but I did not kick him out given it was winter weather, he did not even have a car then to use, and it seemed that keeping the basics of life and his excellent job together are critical for him to possibly emerge into a decent functioning adult man.
