[QUOTE="RBMom, post: 630698, member: 18167"] My gfc is 31 years old. Was in a sober house but got kicked out for drinking alcohol after being sober for 9 months. I let him stay here hoping that he would find a job and another place to live. He has no job, no car, no friends. He is on probation because of trouble with the law. He has also spent time in jail in the past. I've been dealing with these issues for years now. I've always helped him out with everything, hoping that he'd change and get on with his life. He has a terrible attitude. can't seem to ever take the blame for his actions, and won't look for a job. My husband and I have paid for all the sober houses he's been in and for all the places he's lived in and gotten kicked out of. My son had an opportunity to work for two days and used the money to buy alcohol and pot. When this happened we told him we wouldn't let him back in the house. He's been sleeping in the garage and coming in to use the bathroom and cook something to eat. Other than that we won't let him in. Something needs to change. My concern is if I throw him out completely he has absolutely nowhere to go and nobody to call for help. He has had issues with depression and threats of suicide in the past. My heart is broken and I'm havind a difficult time. Everything is telling me to let go but it's so hard... I appreciate any thoughts and advice. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
