[QUOTE="Addictsmom, post: 626232, member: 17748"] I agree that his age has a lot to do with the actions you can take. If he is an adult, and you own the home, you can go to your county and fill out an eviction notice or at least call them an see if you need to do that. My difficult child had been staying at my home during a sober spell and he got drunk, verbally abusive and I had to call the police. They asked me if I wanted him here and I said no. But then one stayed with me and asked me some questions and told me I could go to the county and fill our a paper making it official. I didn't do that, because I knew just the threat of the police would keep my difficult child from trying to force himself back into my home. That just has never been an issue. You have to stick to your guns, or he will never respect you enough to know you mean what you are saying. I read a pamphlet at alanon that was called a letter from your addict. One of the things that it said was...."Don't threaten me with consequences and not follow through, because I won't respect you". I'm paraphrasing. You might be able to google it. I have always remembered this particular pamphlet over the years and my difficult child is now 52 yo and I have been on this road since he was a teenager. Stay strong. People here know your pain.
