[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 668108, member: 1550"] You got great advice. I agree with it all. Just want to add thst it is only adding to your pain and setting yourself up for his emotional abuse by trying to ecplain anything to him. "Less is more" is my motto. Do not talk to him in any heartfelt way. He is angry, lying about the truth, and possibly on drugs. Talking sense to them just ramps them up for two responses: " its your fault" or " ill kill myself if you dont help me" ( this is emotional blackmail.) Your son would be getting into the same degree of trouble if you let him back home and fed him. My daughter, when she was on drugs, liv ed with us for years ( she was a minor teen for most of it) and home didnt stop her from sneaking out at night and running the streets with dangerous addicts, using meth and other stuff, being dragged to an empty park and nearly assaulted, and putting her life in danger by her associations. She was on parole twice. Being home put the entire family in danger. The cops would come calling. My young ones would be terrified of her drug rages and cops calling.wefinally had to tell her to leave. She found some where to stay (long story) but she quit!! But it was not until she was ready. We are close today. Twelve years have gone by. I thought shed end up dead or in prison. For all suicide threats, whether you think they are serious or not, hang up and call 911. Give them the best location you can. Do it fast, before son takes off. The suicide threats will probavly stop after you keep calling the cops. He most likely wont try suicide. Its said as the ultimate guilt trip. But a 911 call is a safety measure just in case. A loving gesture. You can do nothing else. Dont send money. He will buy drugs with it. there are places he can eat if homeless and sleep too but he has to follow shelter rules. If so, they will help him. It is his fault for how he behaves and only he can change himself. There are agencies that help felons get jobs. His life doesnt have to be ruined. Its up to him. Hugs for all the hurt and pain.
