[QUOTE="Steely, post: 193029, member: 3301"] So Star* I can only tell you that I am thinking of you and praying for you. I can relate on the deepest level to what you are saying - and although I am not going through the exact same circumstances - I know that detaching, or cutting the ties is a long term, painful process - especially when we are talking about kids who have the emotional IQ of a 14 year old, when chronologically they are 18. I will probably be the only one to say this, and I could be suffering from my own personal co-dependence issues, but personally I would mortgage the land to pay for a good attorney. An attny that could help explain to the judge the mental challenges this young man faces when it comes to Executive Functioning, an attny that could explain the abuse he was a victim of at an early age and the after effects, and an attny that could help the judge see that what this boy needs is rehabilitation, not jail. To only have one son who you raised single handedly, and have then have to entertain the concept of completing detaching from, is monumental. I am praying for you. [/QUOTE]
