[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 655437, member: 16024"] Lil, I feel for you. This is SO hard! My mommy heart says let him work for the court cost $ by doing yard work/chores with a good attitude at less than minimum wage. I mean, you said you could use the help. So it wouldn't be 'charity' or bailing him out, exactly. It would be paid work. My mind says to let hubby make the decision, though. Cause we mommies think with our hearts. On the bright side, he is concerned about the court fees (and staying out of jail)! Geez the whole living with girlfriend and her hubby is not working out long-term? What a surprise. NOT! Why is it that difficult child s can never just do something the normal way like the rest of us! As for living with grandparents...there are worse things in life that having to go to church every once in a while...like homelessness. With his propensity for theft, however, not sure I would allow him to potentially take advantage of them. I know the feeling of making suggestion after suggestion and they reject every one. Maybe the job will come through and he will have the rent for next month! There is hope! [/QUOTE]
