[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 694419, member: 15032"] In A Daze: He has not been in a sober house in Delray yet and when he was in West Palm Beach he never did find a job. I'm not sure how hard he was looking though to be honest. When he goes to IOP where he is now he will work but they do not make him hand over his paycheck. When he got paid before he was using it mainly for food. We let him leave the program in Delray in May to go to a sober living house in West Palm Beach with a guy that was going to be the house manager in West Palm Beach. Obviously we see now that it was a mistake to let him do that but we're learning too. I felt as long as he was in sober living it was okay/safe. But it seems he needs more support and he never really was 100% in the program which is now what he has to do as far as we are concerned. It's all such a learning experience. Normal parents are not equipped to know how to do this! Thanks for saying we're doing a great job but I question every move we make. Second guess everything but in the end, wonder if it even matters. I thank God every day that he isn't living with us any longer. We still are suffering knowing he is making wrong choices though. I am working on that. Husband better at it than I am. [/QUOTE]
