[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 629466, member: 17542"] TL, when difficult child was homeless between Feb. 14 and April 2, he told me that his PO "couldn't believe" his parents wouldn't let him come home. difficult child said his PO wanted to call us and "I told him, no, that won't do any good." I have serious doubts that conversation occurred. I had called his PO multiple times and left vms. He never called back. I think difficult child said that to try to manipulate us/me into letting him come here or helping him get a place. He thought if someone "official" said it, it would carry more weight. Don't be surprised if the lawyer never said that. It's awful not to trust a word they say, but they have taught us this. Every step of the way. You know your boundaries. And before you get confused about them, write them down. Take it out and read it every day so you know what you need to do for YOU. You can always change those boundaries at any time, if the situation warrants. Hugs to you tonight. Ugh with difficult children right now. [/QUOTE]
