[QUOTE="lovemyson1, post: 689636, member: 16643"] This worries me. My son used to say the same thing. Yes, there are people worse off than they may be but they also need to accept they need the help. If your son doesn't change, he could end up like these hard core drug users. Tell him to stick it out!! My son, has been doing this for over a year now if you include the last time he was in. The rules are super strict, but he has accepted it and knows it's only for a season. His journey will continue. We try to give him that hope. I like this idea and yes, my husband already told him we would cover his first months rent. Guess groceries and stuff will also be included. I guess we just need to start the process. We just got a letter from him and he said he would be patient and finish the year which will end in August. The last time we talked to him he just found out that the military rejected him so he was upset and just wanted some positive news. He apologized for asking for our help and understands that he needs to figure this out. We decided we're going to visit him this weekend and help him with a plan. I'm appreciating each of your ideas though.. this is new to me. Yes, it's been going on for 4 years, but this part is new. Transitioning is what I want to do right and hopefully he will finally be successful this time! Fingers crossed!! [/QUOTE]
