[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 435828"] Thank you all.... now my son texted me today and wants to meet us to talk about his living situation. He doesn't quite know what to do and I am happy he is asking for my help in figuring it out. So I think we will be meeting tomorrow for a meal and to help him figure out his options. I have to be careful not to TELL him what to do but rather give him his options. I am trying to keep in mind my goals here... to love him, help him, guide him but NOT enable his drug use. I don't know what kind of place he could get that he could afford. I think it would have to be a rooming house.... we would be willing to help him pay for a sober living place BUT I am not at all sure he is really ready for that. So it should be interesting. Just talked to him and had a good conversation.... so I am nervous about the situation but also helpful. I asked him how he was and he said better. And he did not sound drunk or high. Mrsammler - I am very worried about the possibility of heroin use. I know that is really really scary. The one thing going for him is he is on probation and if he violated probation he will end up in jail.... and after spending two weeks in jail last year he really does not want to do that.... so hopefully that will be a very strong deterrant for him. That is my hope. [/QUOTE]
