[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 750263, member: 23706"] Not to sound like a pessimist, but when I read about this plan I just naturally figured there would be a honeymoon period then it would fall apart. My reason was what I see and read here and with Kay. No matter what we did or whether or not Kay's environment changed, she still got herself into similar trouble as before. She is on the brink of getting evicted again. Not her first time or Lee's first time. They don't follow rules...ever...including what they need to pay and when. This is not your fault or your sister's fault nor is it about a stable environment. These are all grown men and women and they should be able to create their own stability. To me it seems like the chaos and instability inside of these kids creates discomfort when there is calm and order. Until/unless they are ready, they seem to crave chaos, even if they say they don't. So they start it, if things are too calm. From reading here it seems most can only maintain balance for a short while or if to get something they want. Until they get it, then it's off to the races again. Eventually they leave, implode, even go to jail. The streets scare us, not them. Josh will eat even if he lives on the streets. He knows these survival skills. He knows where to go to meet his normal needs without putting in much work. This doesn't mean that he will end up on the streets now. But these kids do seem to sabotage any kind of help they receive. It doesnt seem important to them to live like most people do. It is very puzzling, but it is certainly common on this forum at least. Make your life about you if you can. It does not help Josh if you worry, and it can make you sick. Don't let that happen. Give it to God. [/QUOTE]
