[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 746446, member: 1550"] Hi. I am also 65 with a husband and a 40 something year old son and three younger kids than him. I can only tell you what I would do then.you have to decide. You are still working hard and caring for your husband, as I would in your circumstancs. I dont have a homeless child. Mine all work and dont need me that way, not that we have not had issues but none as serious as homelessness,not working etc. We other stuff though or why would I be here? If my precious husband (stepfather to two of my four kids) were sick under no conditions could any difficult.adult child I have come home and disturb him. Nor would I give that necessary amount of money away. You need it. Your son is on SSDI so he qualifies for services like Section 8, Medicare, food cards and Work Rehab services. It is harder for us to do all that at our age and I believe that this is our time to care for us first. We already did our best for them and the kids are adults now but still young enough to start a new life. If her wont do it, the onus is on him. Did you depend on Mom at 43? There are Community Services for people who cant or wont work. One of my kids is autistic and works and also gets SSI, lives on his own, has never been homeless and is very well liked. He follows society's rules and lives a pretty normal life and asks for nothing. What is your son going to do when you are not here? I always wanted to know that my kids were all set so we made them be independent from us. If it hadn't happened, I would be very sad for my child but would not help with much money and definitely not by housing him. Not at this age. I hope you can find a solution that works for you. Hugs and keep posting! [/QUOTE]
