[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 455842"] What HD says makes sense to me. He is conflicted and has one foot in one world and one foot in another. And of course, you don't want to be"played," or worse, contribute to him making poor choices. Might be wise not to sweat the small stuff, but to set FIRM boundaries with reference to major red flag areas...like no drug use, no violence, no crime and REGULAR class attendance. The idea of sporadic drug testing as part of the agreement to stay at your place makes sense to me. Might also be good to keep the lines of communication open. I'm a big advocate for counseling and if you can find a person that works for him, that might help to keep him on the right track. Good to hear that he is paying you back for fines, etc. It really sounds like there is a lot of hope here! :) [/QUOTE]
