[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 614790, member: 17269"] freakchick, thank you for your reply. I am glad you have family for the holidays, even if they are not as you remember them. We didn't throw our difficult child out...he just moved on...first he lived with the Occupy Movement, which was sort of a transitional encampment for him, and at least a place we could visit him (although eventually seeing him live in a cardboard hut got too much for me...although there was a sense of civil rights and revolution that was kind of cool.) and then he never came home, preferring couches and construction sites and other peoples cars. He seems to kind of like the work of finding shelter, more than he likes anything else. He also begs. and now he is in jail. Its OK to set expectations for you son, rules of the house. Just set ones that are attainable and clear, and only set ones you are willing to back up. Thanks for making me feel less alone. [/QUOTE]
