[QUOTE="Beta, post: 750763, member: 22597"] Sometimes you do things more for your own peace of mind than for their wellbeing. Case in point--last weekend we put Josh up at a motel for three days while my sister and her husband were out of town. They had initially said he could stay in the house while they were gone but then they witnessed a few incidents where he seemed angry and unstable and they (reasonably) did not feel comfortable having him there alone. He told me the other day that we had thrown our money away and it could have been used to help him get a car. I knew it was a waste, but for myself I just couldn't handle his being on the street for three days. So, I bought myself some peace of mind is the way I look at it. You can't always do that, but sometimes you can, and you do. [/QUOTE]
