[QUOTE="worried sick mother, post: 689632, member: 19069"] Is it possible to help him with bills for one month ? To give him time to find a job and get on his feet. That's what my sons counselor at the rehab he just left told me to do. Not to give the money directly to him but to help pay bills and buy him groceries, tell him he has one month then no more help at all. A lot of people on here didn't agree with that advice but it seemed reasonable to me. I didn't want my son to come back without a penny or a job and say well you're on your own, I wanted to give him a chance and be supportive of sobriety. I also thought if I didn't then he might do something illegal. [/QUOTE]
