[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 499656, member: 3305"] Hi Janet, Gosh I'm sorry this Buck character is back on the scene, Jeez. A couple of thoughts.... One is that "wherever you go there you are". Trust me I know first hand that a "move" will not stop Buck's drug use if that is what he is determined to do. Secondly, since he is an addict...why not suggest to Tony that you guys help "support" him into a Sober House where he is currently located. I mean, my goodness, if you guys don't have the resources where you live what kind of "help" can you really be long term cause this Buck guy is gonna need "supports" be it a sober house, AA, etc. There is a group called the "Oxford Houses" they are nationwide. I'm currently looking into their sober houses for when my young difficult child gets out of jail. I think the cost is from 75 to 125 a week. Maybe one of Tony's sibling would pitch in to help get Buck into a sober house where he is currently living. Just some thoughts. I too understand your house being your safety net. I feel the same way about mine...I am hardly out of a nightgown most of the time Janet. My mother is ALWAYS sarcastically asking, "Are you sick? You must be sick to be in your nightgown all day everyday" roll eyes. Ya mom, maybe if you hadn't raised me on a U-Haul truck moving constantly during my childhood I MIGHT not be such a recluse now! Anyway, I sure hope you can Keep Buck where he is...Tony is really setting the stage for some long-term resentments in my humble opinion if this Buck comes back to stay with you guys, um. Thinking of you, LMS [/QUOTE]
