[QUOTE="Lil, post: 700024, member: 17309"] Kailoani, I feel for you. My son is not homeless at this moment, and I can't say that in the past he [I]chose[/I] to be, because I'm sure he didn't want us to put him out...but his behavior was incompatible with living in our home. He is, however, making a choice to be very soon. Granted, he doesn't plan on it being that way forever and I pray he succeeds, but he's moving to another state with a backpack and about $800 and no way to do anything but stay in the cheapest of places and homeless shelters until he finds work and a way to live. It's not what anyone wants for their child, is it? It may sound crazy, but I plan on paying his bus ticket. The fact is, he's going with or without my help. I'd prefer he have the extra $125.00 in his pocket when he gets where he's going. Like yours, I believe my son has underlying issues and refuses to believe that medication and therapy is worthwhile. Like your son, mine is quite young. Perhaps they will both find their ways. Welcome to our community. I'm so sorry that you need to be with us. [/QUOTE]
