[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 435909, member: 59"] I would ask his input on what kind of help he wants. If we were in this situation, and we very well may be soon, I would probably try to help financially with rent somewhere on the condition that he stay sober, get into some kind of program, keep his job, and be financially responsible with his money. Remind him that you are not going to help pay his rent so he can go out and party. The goal is to get him independant and responsible. I think you already know that if you don't help it will push him into a full blown relapse. That may be what should happen but I'm not sure this is the way to do it. Keeping him out of your house and on his own is the best situation ofr all of you. Keepig the doors to communication open are very important. I'm not sure how you are going to protect yourself financially if he just bolts but you will have to be prepared for that. If you are then I say go aheaqd and help him find an inexpensive place to live that is safe and near transportation. Nancy [/QUOTE]
