[QUOTE="bluebell, post: 738997, member: 16761"] Elsi, I don't want to move your cat but I sure would like to enjoy your place for a couple of months! That would totally straighten me out! LOL. Joking aside, we sent my son to live with his aunt on a farm once for a few months thinking the same, and although he had too much respect for them to act out, he went right back to doing everything he had been doing when he got back. Sometimes these respites are just that, a break from their usual ways. My son is much younger though (21) but I imagine he will end up like yours. He's going thru couch surfing options at an alarming rate right now. At his age, any living arrangements would need to be temporary with a plan to get out. There is nowhere around there he could work? A neighbor's farm or something? And I'm not an expert on suicide, but I don't think taking him in lessens that risk. So many times my son threatened in the safe and warmth of my home, his room, his things, three meals a day. Very sad. [/QUOTE]
