[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 347982, member: 1514"] Steely, I tend to come from a place where I might do one thing if I was able...say pay for one or two months of a motel or apartment IF I HAD THE MEANS which is something that I would probably not be able to do unless it was very cheap, but after that he would be on his own. I dont see our kids in the same scenario as kids in college because they didnt do things the correct way. Just plain facts. When Cory moved out, he had to pay his rent and his deposits. We didnt help him. He got social services to do his electricity deposit. His dad did help him put the floor in with used lumber and some wood Cory bought cheap. He went without carpet or vinyl for months until he could find some being thrown away. He bought dishes at the Goodwill and got stuff off freecycle for his fridge and stove. Before he had those he used a microwave he paid 2 bucks for and an old electric frying pan I had under my cabinet. He used an ice chest to keep stuff cold. We havent bought him hardly anything. I got him pots and pans for xmas. It was what he asked for. He has been hungry, he has had to figure things out. He is determined he will never come home again. It worked. And yes I have worried.
