[QUOTE="bluebell, post: 712796, member: 16761"] I am back from vacation. My son was released without bail and we took him with us on vacation. He stayed at home with us for 2 days after his release. It was understood that he would be making quite a few changes in his life upon return. Noone in our family would take him and we thought if we left him he would have no choice but to stay with the people who are fostering his bad choices, and frankly involved in a drug ring. He was very quiet throughout the trip, kept to himself and left to be with these people (can't call them friends) as soon as the plane landed. He used to love traveling. It is so sad. My brother was with us also which might have had something to do with him being so quiet. My son doesn't generally show that side of himself when other family members are around. He bought a car from one of the people he hangs out with, he is older than my husband, I don't know why that matters but it hurts that somehow he has replaced us with other parental figures. The car will not start without a jump and is in horrible condition. He called us and asked for a loan but we said no. He brought it over and wanted his dad to look it over. Son has already signed the title so what is the point and if he starts listing the repairs needed then that will open the door for him to ask us to pay. We did have to jump it to get it started for him to leave. We left a decent running car albeit held together with duct tape at the impound lot after he was arrested. I was not going to enable his drug dealing any longer. He has been arrested twice in the last 3 months with the car being impounded each time. He says he has a job that he starts tomorrow. He is not staying in our home. I am depressed beyond words. My husband, daughter and I had a wonderful time despite him being there but now it's back to reality. Which includes work, housework, homeschooling and dealing with whatever our son brings into our lives this week. I want to go back. I appreciate you guys and wanted to reach out to help me get my week back started. Happy Memorial Day everyone! [/QUOTE]
