[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 635375, member: 17269"] Lil, I'm so happy for you that that bumpy tale of frustration has resolved itself...all the starts and stops, the hard-to-believe explanations, the "where is he really and why did that really happen" stuff is over, or at least on hold. He's at work! He's gotta feel better about himself. My son never keeps a job for more than a few weeks, so I understand your anxiety about that I ALWAYS get my hopes up, and to date it has never been different. But..I figure each job is a little experience, each job is another few weeks of learning to be responsible...maybe some day it will add up and click in his mind (on bad days I think each job he quits or just fails to show up at is one more burned bridge, surely he'll eventually run out of no skills required work? but those are the bad days). So...happy for you! Take a deep breath and put him out of your mind today! He is doing what he is supposed to do..working, earning his way. Its a good place to be. Echo [/QUOTE]
