[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 740222, member: 1550"] Copa, dear woman...your son remembers his childhood. He does not have amnesia. My gut feeling is that he is not mentioning coming home, but hopes to be invited. I believe he is trying to scare you for favors Here is a thought; an option that you can totally reject but it IS outside of the box as well as your comfort zone. Sometimes for US, we need to give in a bit and say "Uncle." For us, not them. Please know your well being is on my mind when I offer this option. It is meant kindly. J's homelessness and possibly fake (or real) suicide threats scare and sadden you. For your sake, not his, what if you let him stay in your spare house or a part of it. Let him smoke his dang pot. Its legal there and he has not used harder drugs. This is for YOU, not his welfare. Will he work? Probably not. Let him be. You will not suffer about him being on the streets without hope if he is there. You dont have to interact much if you dont want to and you dont have to pay attention to what he does/doesnt do. But you can stop worrying about the streets and he doesnt have to live with you. Is it perfect? NO! It would be only to help YOU I am not saying you should even consider this. I am only offering a new idea, which you can fully reject. I hate how these adult kids scare us so. At least J. is not using drugs that are illegal or cause violence. I sincerely hope you can find that elusive peace. Love and light! [/QUOTE]
