[QUOTE="Bennieb, post: 635359, member: 14380"] Sweetmama, I am in the same boat as you!! At this very moment, I'm trying to figure out how to deal with my difficult child who is begging for $, that he supposedly needs to get to and from work. I have told him that I do not have any money to give him, as I have easy child's 15th birthday next week, and am paying for other easy child's college tuition (not that I have to justify where and how I spend my hard earned money) He told us some BS story that he had a place to move to, so, we went up to his grandparents house yesterday, disassembled his whole room and moved everything out to the garage and then surprisingly, he couldn't get ahold of his buddy that was supposed to come pick up his stuff and move it for him, so it's just a non stop barrage of lies. He's been out of the house for about 2 weeks now, and in that time, I have given him $100, because he said he could only stay with his buddy if he had food. Well, he showed up at my door asking for more money, stoned out of his tree. So that was enough for me to not feel bad about not giving him money, but the calls and texts are relentless! And my biggest fear is that he will show up at my house at night, when he knows that his father is at work, and I am on my own with my easy child's. It just feels so flippin hopeless!! [/QUOTE]
