[QUOTE="Lil, post: 684611, member: 17309"] I must admit, I'm torn over this. On one hand, I do want to help our son and I hope that, as he'd been working and paying rent, he can get a job and move back out quickly and "launch" this time, as it were. The down side to him coming back...well there's several. #1, he may go back to just being lazy and not look for work. #2, we may be right back to the "it's too hard to job hunt without a car" with the car that was intended to be his sitting right there. #3, he'll try to make us feel bad about his buddy - and I'm soft-hearted enough I already feel bad...I just don't want to deal with it. On the other hand, if he doesn't come back and he's homeless and on the street, what good does that do anyone? He'll have a much harder time job hunting. I'll be miserable worrying about him. :sigh: I'm praying that someone got booted out of the shelter last night. :( [/QUOTE]
