[QUOTE="DDD, post: 320552, member: 35"] Do you all remember GFGmom? She's a piece of work! In case you don't remember (and nobody could remember all our difficult children!) GFGmom talked difficult child into moving out of our home right before his 18th birthday to come "have a fresh start" living with her and her K age difficult child. difficult child had lived over eight years total at our home and once he was used to our "boring" life, he really did very well for as AS kid. on the other hand his Mom had always been his lst attachment and she almost always put him on the back burner when any guy was around etc. Also she had collected disability on him for the eight years he lived with us and never told us or anyone that she was collecting monthly money while we struggled to raise her two sons. Well....he moved to Mom's and they had a "honeymoon" of a couple of months until Mom found a new boyfriend. The new boyfriend is a nice guy :happy: and actually wants to marry GFGmom. He has really put time in helping the little girl difficult child with homework etc. etc. BUT????,,,but, difficult child has not been enrolled at the community college. difficult child has not had a counseling session in months. difficult child is spending his life in his room [B]and [/B]hanging out with his only friend with is the 32 year old son of a neighbor. WHAT??? The guy is "young for his age" "has four or five children" "has never been married" "seems to be just fine" "shares an interest in music with difficult child " "enjoys using difficult children computer because he doesn't have one". WHAT??? The guy is also unemployed. Are you ready for the latest on GFGmom??? OMG :angry:! Yesterday I find out from GFGmom and her boyfriend that "difficult child is going to be moving out as soon as his adult disability comes through" "We have found a nice subsidized housing development in the town 20 miles away where he will be in walking distance of the grocery and drug stores etc" In answer to my question she replied "yes he is scared but he is 19 and an adult and will get used to it...and...boyfriend and I deserve a chance to have a happy life with little difficult child". She is so blankin' eager to be rid of him that she even said "if you or Grandad want to be in charge of his money..I'm fine with that". Now when she turns her back on money lst..that's news. He must be petrified and angry and hurt. We can not step up to the plate and offer him a home again and our assistance because we have finally just gotten too darn old. So, starting today, I am back into networking to find supports for the kid in the neighboring town. OMG he is SO vulnerable that he might as well wear a sign that says "I have mental health issues and need friends and help." He'll have $200 a month in food stamps and almost $400 after rent. Since he has lived with GFGmom any and all money he has earned has been spent instantly for "fun". Yikes. I hope there is a special place for GFGmom in the afterlife. DDD [/QUOTE]
