[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 708056, member: 4152"] Agree with above posters. But, I might add, even with a difficult child, it seems it can be difficult to transition when they move out of the home. Although, in this case...no doubt there is much relief as well. Who is paying for his apartment? Totally agree...do NOT check his social media. I would only check it if someone reports something grave/life altering/threatening...I just wouldn't check it unless it is some extreme situation. Calmly care and love and nurture yourself, family / spouse. If appropriate, you might give him information on how to get food stamps. You might continue to offer to pay for counseling...but make absolutely sure he is going and you pay directly to the counselor. Never let him abuse you or your family in any way, shape or form. Consider getting at least short term counseling for yourself, if you are not doing so already. There are groups you might consider joining like Families Anonymous. If he has a key to your home, make sure you change the lock!!! If you haven't gone on a "date night" with your spouse recently, consider taking the time to do that. [/QUOTE]
