[QUOTE="Star*, post: 120505, member: 4964"] SLSH, When thank you figures out that the world doesn't owe him anything and really feels it in his heart - he'll get it together. Right now - he's not really doing without - so how could he learn to do anything? I keep telling myself that if Dude has to survive on the streets - he'll be alright. I'm less than 8 months away from his 18th birthday. I dread and am happy all at the same time - Could he support himself, get a job, keep a job? Nope. Are the streets the right place for him? Not really. Could he get a job? Keep a job? I just don't know - but he's going to have to figure it out on his own. If I died tomorrow - he'd be on his own. And all our lives we're teaching our kids skills so that when we aren't there - they can survive. thank you hasn't had to do without anything - when he does and he's on his own - he'll have to figure it out. Trust that you've raised him to figure out that much. In the mean time - hope that the program has a kid that thank you thinks is really getting his mess together and wants to be like - our kids mature so slowly. Big hugs Star [/QUOTE]
