[QUOTE="luane, post: 634801, member: 18252"] Hi, I have been reading along on these boards every day or so and they are comforting. Today has been a rough one for me, though. My son choose to live in his car, rather than take us up on the offer of rental assistance in a sober living home. His choice and another stupid one. So he's been getting by living in his car the past month and staying away as we threatened to get a restraining order. Now we have a heat wave , it's 104 today and will be for the next 3 days. So he calls me and tells me he's going to get heat stroke and wants to park in our driveway (which would be broiling as well). I had to tell him no, then he asks if he can pick up a shirt, so my husband says to take it outside for him. Well he pulls up in his car while I'm outside and starts in by saying he almost crashed his car and died this morning because of no sleep (he works nights). His eyes are so red and he looks terrible and I just told him to go to a mall. It just kills me that he is too stupid (?!) to find a place cool, to do something smart. I told him to rent a room somewhere and he says he has no money. I know these are his choices, his bad decisions...but I just worry that he'll get heat stroke. This is so difficult to deal with...
