[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 634003, member: 1550"] It is up to his wife where she stays. Nobody owes her a home. She is a grown up with children. And she is messing with your life. How did you son end up on house arrest in YOUR house? Can it be changed? He doesn't sound very fun to live with. He is a drug addict and a danger to you, on or off drugs. Your younger son clearly doesn't need his bad example around. It is hard to learn to say "Sorry, but I'm not your mommy anymore...you're a man and a woman and you need to do this yourself. If you can't find a relative who will let you stay with him/her, there are homeless shelters." Chances are the wife burned her bridges with her entire family, which is the norm. It is not your place to house her. And aren't you scared of your son too? What does he do to contribut to the house? How does he make it an asset for him to live with you? Lastly, why on earth would you allow them to smoke pot in your yard? I called the cops on my daughter when she smoked pot in my house. I can't say that it had anything to do with it, but my daughter QUIT using drugs and she used some pretty bad ones. She is clean about ten years now, but she was not coddled. I think you hurt your son and his wayward wife more by housing him than by letting them learn about life in the School of Hard Knocks. JMO. [/QUOTE]
