[QUOTE="Suz, post: 271769, member: 29"] Well, your son won't be the only one of our board sons who was homeless. He should be grateful he has a car to stay in! At one point my son and his girlfriend lived out of his car. They parked at a local truck stop because they could take showers there and eat cheap food. This was during a cold and snowy winter season even. It was horrifying for him and for his father and me for different reasons. We were so afraid for him (them). The long and short of it is that going through that taught him to appreciate having a roof over his head and that if he wants a roof over his head he has to work for it. It's a traumatic way to learn these life lessons but that seems to be the only way some of our kids learn them. PFP, please do a signature. There are many of us here and it helps us remember each other. It also helps you not have to repeat your story every time you post. Here's a link with the instructions.
