[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 696829, member: 1967"] Yes he does. You posted that your husband sent him money and then you gave him another $20 for Wendy's and he "spent some of it." Where do you think the rest is going? Every time my daughter had to change halfway houses we had to pay a new move in fee. It got ridiculous until we finally said no. Then she miraculously found some that didn't require one. So now your son has his car back, rent paid, and money for food. Sounds like he got just what he wanted to me. As I said in another post, they can be very resourceful at getting what they want. Sadly, that includes manipulation of the people that love them. One other thing, my husband and I sent Publix cards to our daughter thinking that they could not be used for alcohol. Wrong. She managed to find a Publix that had a separate liquor store that took her Publix cards. She also sold them for cash so she could use the cash for drugs and alcohol. My advice is to insist that he get his EBT card and then stop sending any money/cards for food. Give him a deadline and then stick to it. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
