[QUOTE="WearyMom18, post: 653564, member: 18856"] [B]Good grief..the saga continues...it turns out I never should have been worried about court. She has bigger problems. [/B] I got home and immediately got a call from the mother of an ex-boyfriend, the guy she was with before rehab that is in a gang. She said she was calling to tell me that her son is doing time in jail right now and shel isn't with him (don't know why that matters) and that she got a call from another guy, that apparently picked my Difficult Child up off the side of the road. She gave this guy my number so he calls me. My Difficult Child told him that her boyfriend got arrested and she got thrown out of where they were staying and she had no where to go.

She has been at his house since late last week and he said she has broken the windshield in his truck and tore up his console going nuts on drugs I guess. He said he doesn't want to kick her out and he doesn't want to call the police but she needs help. I told him that he should call the police and have her arrested.
