[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 699668, member: 15032"] So yesterday afternoon son called and asked husband to pay for a hotel room until he starts making money. My husband said no way is he going to pay for anything while he sits on his butt. Husband told him off in anger and I was not happy about that but he said he lost it. Son texted me last night from another phone number because I blocked him saying that you should never turn your back on family. He has no money, no gas, no food and no shelter. He did not know if he would survive. I told him he has an addiction and he needs to get treatment and he said no he doesn't. I said your life is like this and you don't have a problem? He did not bother us the rest of the night. Today his old (young) house manager texted me that son said he'd go there to detox today. Husband texted son and son to encourage him and son said he is hoping he will get job at Publix so he can rent a room. His words: That is my only way out of this mess! A mess that he created. He is 21 and has done nothing with his life. We have given him every tool. Love and encouragement. I didn't think it would come to him being homeless but it has. He may go to treatment if no other choice. But that's not how I want it to play out. I hope this is some kind of learning experience for him. He has never fended for himself like this. [/QUOTE]
