[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 699998, member: 17720"] Hello Kailoani. I am sorry you had to find us but glad you did. I echo what the above moms have said. My son is 23 and is also homeless. Needless to say, we don't understand why he chooses to live this way, despite repeated efforts by many to help him. Goodness, from your post it sounds like your son has grief on top of anger on top of blame on top of resentment and who knows what else? Sounds like maybe he is in punishment mode a little bit too? He is so young, even though he is legally an adult. But since he is an adult, all you can do is what you have been doing, Kailoani. Just show him you love him and care and will be there when he is ready. Do you think there are any drugs or alcohol contributing? I am hoping he is "licking his wounds" right now, if that makes any sense, and will do some soul-searching and realize he needs to reach out. My heart goes out to you. What a difficult place for you to be in. Keep posting and reading. It really helps. [/QUOTE]
