[QUOTE="Forensikchic, post: 573054, member: 15774"] Thanks so much for your reply. I have been sitting here all day worrying over how to do this. I know its the right thing to do. I have to get him out of my house. Its high time he left. No pun intended. My father advised me to charge him with the theft of my jewelry and so did the store that he sold it to. Im not sure I can bring myself to charge him but like my dad said, if not me then its just a matter of time "who". He is on the path of burglary, theft, drugs etc and until he suffers consequences for those actions, he wont grow up or learn to be a man. He is very small in stature and it worries me, him going to jail. He is about 5' 6" tall and weighs a mere 120 pounds.. looks like a 12 year old, literally. Thinks he is tough but they will eat him alive in there. They have a lot of Mexican Mafia in jail here. They did a TV special on the gang violence in the jails. I know you are right, I should turn him in for the jewelry theft, its just going to be so hard to do. First, I need to get him out of my house. Maybe that will be sufficient wake up call. He really doesnt believe I will. I can tell he doesnt believe it. I will check my state laws to see if I need to evict him. I am going to wait until Saturday to spring this on him because my hubby works out of town and I dont want to be alone when we talk to him. I might crumble. I think the giving him 30 days to find a job and move out is a good plan, but it also just prolongs the inevitable. I will be in this place in my heart again in a month. It just never ends. I need to get my facts about this state in order so I know if I need an eviction notice or not. Maybe I will just give one just in case. It can spell out the rules and if he breaks them, and he will, the move date will be sooner and he will be charged with the theft of my jewelry. Thanks again for the great advice. Now to put it all into action.. Ughh.... [/QUOTE]
