[QUOTE="eandk02, post: 83867, member: 4086"] We just had a discussion this week with him regarding what we are "required" to provide for him. He really didn't like our response (food, a mattress and a roof over his head). His reply has been that he has other places to live other than here. We have told him that if these places are so great then go. He is still here. We do go through his room a few times a week and have found things hidden in his floor vents, under his mattress and in a hole made in the box spring. He keeps things that he doesn't want us to see on him all the time (phone numbers, cigarettes, pocketknives, etc.). He forgot to take his list of phone numbers with him when he was getting ready for school one morning and hubby found it and took it away. He was furious!! We never did give it back. He has never been violent although if you try and place him in his room, he will resist. Hubby and him have gotten into what I call wrestling matches, but never anything violent. We do have a dog who he loves very much and has never hurt her. And while I'm sure he finds his little sister annoying, he has never hurt her either. He has been doing some community service work this morning and I hate to admit, it is times like these when he is out of the house and supervised that things are most calm at home. [/QUOTE]
