[QUOTE="Stress Bunny, post: 622922, member: 4855"] Regarding detachment, I definitely think it is critical that we do not enable JT. If he ever finds himself in jail again or some other situation resulting from his own poor choices, we will not bail him out literally or figuratively, even if he does lose his job. In all likelihood, he will lose it anyway, because he does not take direction well, and he is very irresponsible. So, this is probably just prolonging the inevitable. But I wonder what will ever become of him. husband called to say that JT had only $100 in his account right now. But, he made JT write out checks that we will cash this week for the remainder, when his tax refund clears. JT did apologize robotically and also smirked as he went to enter husband's vehicle. I can't stand that smirk, so I am glad I wasn't there. It makes me think he is enjoying this in some stupid way; that he is sociopathic or something. How can he smirk when he's caused everyone, including himself, so much grief? Does anyone know if a landlord is notified of something like this? I'm wondering if he will also face eviction from his apartment. That's where the drinking was going on. Of course, if not now, that will also likely happen in the future anyway, as he will miss paying his rent. It is just a matter of time. It's like he is a speeding train on a track, and there is no way that the track can be changed before the track runs straight off a cliff. In the worst irony, I envision JT one day living with his bio mom and half brother again, surrounded in filth, and strung out on drugs and alcohol. I know I don't have control over this, but that doesn't make it any easier. [/QUOTE]
