[QUOTE="MuM_of_OCD_kiddo, post: 458276, member: 12241"] Congrats! This must be such a relief to know where he is and that he is trying to work his sobriety. I think at this point, there is nothing wrong with putting some feelers out there, using some connections, and maybe dropping a word here and there, that he is looking for a job. It is so darn hard right now to find any job period, it must be doubly as hard for him. I would not go out on a limb for him, but more stuff along the line of a text here and there: You know I drove by soandso this morning, and they say they're hiring on the markee. You want that number? Or: You know that place over at the corner X+Y street, soandso said they are having an opening for a ______. Won't you go by and check? If you are the newspaper reader in your family, or have a computer available and he does not, I would not call that enabling - just lending a helpful hand. What he makes out of it, is his problem [or solution]. Heartfelt Hugs! [/QUOTE]
