[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 641699, member: 18238"] Actually, that was a given from the start. This is only a temporary shelter and even if he was on his best behaviour he would be out in mid-January as they only do 90 day "Assist" stays. I agree with you whole heartedly 2m2r. Lil dropped him off so she could go get the pepto. He spent a bit in the bathroom and after he came out, made minimal and generic attempts at conversation. When Lil got back he immediately asked if he could get on her laptop and spent the rest of the night on FB and YouTube. He spent the night showing Lil videos and such, pretty much ignoring the fact that I existed because he was busy buttering up Mom. Ignore the hard case and go for the soft touch. I love you Honey but that is the understatement of the year. I'm sorry for saying this here, but need to say this without misinterpretation...I dont want him to come over on Sunday. Period. If you want us to take him out for lunch, fine. But even then there need to be rules like no cursing, set a time limit, no buying him cigarettes. And for the record, if he is going to keep giving his cell to J-1, we seriously need to discuss at least taking it back if not just shutting it off completely. Again, I'm sorry about saying this here but you tend to have those mom blinders on when it comes to our son and sometimes things I say get blocked by those blinders. [/QUOTE]
