[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 328616, member: 1550"] I would post on Parent Emeritus forum...for grown kids who have problems. However, I pretty much know that almost all will tell you not to enable him and to let him fall if he must. The parents over there have all dealt with grown kids who don't want to grow up, are in trouble, substance abuse, steal, end up in jail...etc. I wouldn't pay for him. JMO, but I'd let him hit rock bottom or he may never get help. He has no incentive to change if he knows he'll have a place to eat and sleep and that you feel sorry for him. Very hard to do, but we needed to do it to our daughter before she would change. It worked. [/QUOTE]
