[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 739037, member: 15801"] Copa.... My son is not working. He is actively (I think looking for a job). He had a job for a short time but quit for various reasons. He is having trouble finding work because of his criminal record.....I really think him having a job would be a huge help to him. I found it much much harder to keep clear about boundaries and to happily live my own life when my son was living with us. Then his issues, his unhappiness is in your face all the time. It is hard not to have it not totally get in the way of your own good feelings and peace of mind. When he was living with us, I felt like we were kind of in survival mode. I didnt like spending time at home. Looking back it was awful. At least when they are not living with you, it is not in your face all the time and you can feel like some peace at least some of the time. I really dont want to ever go through that again.
