[QUOTE="JKF, post: 607515, member: 12470"] Cedar - yes he's still out there. Uggggh! I gave him a blanket and sweatshirts and a backpack when I saw him Saturday. Tomorrow I'll be dropping off some nonperishable food that he can eat after he's had his daily meal at the soup kitchen. The MHA is also helping him with showers and clean clothes, toiletries, etc. The situation is definitely getting to difficult child now. He's edgy and complaining how much the streets suck and making comments that are meant to sting such as "At least YOU have a home". I gently reminded him that he, too, would have had a home (or at least a room in the boarding house) had he not made such poor choices. Anyway, my husband and I have decided to go ahead and send him out to my father next week. Not as a "reward" but because we can't quite give up on him yet and we feel in out guts that this is the right decision. So he has approx 6 nights left here to deal with the elements and then hopefully he'll be on his way to a better life. Please send lots and lots of good vibes and prayers that for the next 6 nights he'll be safe and stay out of trouble until it's time for him to leave. I'm a nervous wreck bc I'm terrified that something will happen to mess this up but I really hope not! [/QUOTE]
