[QUOTE="witzend, post: 499644, member: 99"] Janet, I'm so sorry. If you truly can not get Tony to budge on this, you need to sit down an discuss basic rules just as you did for your kids. How long is he going to stay? Is there a goal date or a goal achievement for him to leave? What will he do to contribute to the household while he is there? What things are not allowed under any circumstances? And I hate to say it, but if he starts using again or steals, do you both agree upon - or at least do you both know what the other will do? If he's getting high and your action is to call the cops and have him hauled away, does Tony respect that? As intertwined as your two lives are, you are still individual people. If you can't come to an agreement as to what you'll do together, you need to at least respect what the other will do if pushed beyond their limits. Your house, your rules. Big hugs... [/QUOTE]
