[QUOTE="stressedmama, post: 674616, member: 18412"] Hubs started to waiver yesterday. I called the place she was in last year to see if they had any openings and if they would take her back since she didn't finish the program the first go-round. She's on a short waiting list. She would need to get a job within the first 2 weeks so he started talking about giving her the car. He's just not thinking clearly. He then said she's probably going to lose her license due to the DUI and came back around to her not getting the car because she won't be allowed to drive anyway. He's talking about how he thinks she's going to need an attorney, etc and I told him we just don't have the money and maybe she can get a public defender or something. He said he just doesn't want to set her up for failure. I reminded him we did everything we could to support her last time. We did everything right and she still failed. It's on her to decide if she's going to make it or not. And I also told him most everyone else in that halfway house doesn't have a car and they make it somehow. He's just still so torn between his head and his heart. Anyway, next time he speaks with her, he will give her the information I got for her to call and see if there's an opening at the halfway house and then it's on her to decide if she's going to take advantage of this opportunity. Honestly, I think the only reason she's gone to detox and these short-term rehabs over the last 3 weeks is because she had nowhere else to go. It was either that or the street. We'll see... [/QUOTE]
