[QUOTE="mof, post: 696812, member: 20533"] My son would have just finished his freshmen year at 20....they are not great thinking adults. He is very naive.....add to a mental illness he just got confirmed, his life has started over. I cannot compare him to others, or even ourselves. I was a mature kid, but I drank, smoked pot and by the grace of good want arrested. Got a BS and married young, and I didn't have a mental illness. I think these young people with the disease of addiction and other mental issues have the cards stacked against them and I thank god there are men and women other than ourselves who can help show them there way. Swot...it's great your daughter did it in her own. Mine tried and failed, without help for other issues it would have never worked. Who cares how they get well, but as parents I don't see an issue with giving them told and professionals. RN...the first house my son was in controlled the money. He was given a budget for food, and had to ask for it when he got a ride to store. Some will do this for you. My kid felt he had to feed other guys who didn't have enough....wasn't much I could do...I figured he'd take care of him first. I worry everyday.....but I have to have faith. Ill have it for both of us....they are not all equal at the same time...hugs [/QUOTE]
