[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 657447, member: 1550"] I wouldn't send money to a homeless adult child who refuses help and I'm sure a lot of mothers wouldn't. I don't think it's against what mothers do. Now if a ten year old got stranded, we'd pick him up. He is a child. But a man of 26 who is doing drugs and refusing to work? I actually think there are people who do worse and don't post here because they don't feel any guilt. They are just plain fed up that their own adult child is a danger to them and not exactly a friend to society or himself. They find it a no-brainer not to help out. You are doing what you have to do. In case he finds a way back, change your locks, maybe get an alarm, be prepared. Keep your car locked in a garage if you have one. Hide your valuables in a safe in case he breaks in. It is a cruddy way to live, but you have to take care of yourself. He will leave Chicago soon enough when he sees that nobody is going to give him a place to live for free. [/QUOTE]
