[QUOTE="Lil, post: 693480, member: 17309"] This is EXACTLY why we never actually signed our car over to our son. I admit, I wanted to...Jabber was against it and every time I thought of this possibility I knew he was right. But in the end: This was my thought. Ours was even an SUV so he literally could have slept in the back...but we never did because we knew he'd sell it or get a loan against it. It finally died and the repair costs were nearly more than the value...so it's gone...as is his chance of earning or buying it from us. More drama is just what we parents don't need. I'm sorry. I understand how you take comfort in them having a car. I always did when he was at school...and when he was homeless, I would have loved for him to have that option for shelter. I hate today that, in our town with poor transportation, he has to take the bus or catch rides. Maybe it's character building, but in the end...often...cars become necessities. But it's his choice and I hope it all works out for the best. [/QUOTE]
