[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 722520, member: 21895"] My son is in the throes of feeling sorry for himself and is in high drama mode. He has already been acting out. He actually text and demanded $100 for a Rave. Clearly the answer was NO. I had offered to help him shop for groceries and get the basics as he is now renting a room. It is in a house in another city. I don't know if that is true or not, real or made up. It is the address he provided to social services. He lies so much I don't know what is truthful or real. He never even responded about the groceries. I am concerned that he is obtaining funds illegally, this is his issue not mine. His choice not mine. You are so right. Wise words from both you and SWOT. He has no phone plan and can only text on FB messenger on WIFI even at that he has continued his attacks. I blocked him for the time being and told him to communicate with his father if he needs to be in contact. He was in and out of a number of places. He has an address. There are again a new group of people he is with. Cycling through groups of people faster and faster. Who knows if he missed a curfew at a shelter or someone's home or anywhere at all. We will not let him back in again and he knows this. Not that it will prevent him from trying. He has court cases and bail meetings coming up. I predict he will be in jail before long and that he will blame this non us as well. He truly thrives on crisis and playing the victem. The sleeping bag and warm clothes are a great idea. I want him no where on my property. My husband found a woman's small purse in his room. It was empty. Probably stolen. That makes me sick to my very core. We can somehow tolerate the fact that they steal from us; but when it is apparent that they steal from others. This is truly a wake up call. I have my moments and I know I always will, for today I am strong and grateful for wise support. I will be tempted to back slide and support him. I will use my armour to protect myself. We were out at a lovely function last evening with close friends. Most know to not ask about our son as we are trying to be in our own moments and live our lives. When one person asked about him and was getting a bit dramatic about the situation; for the very first time I did not cry nor did I let this ruin my evening. I am proud of that moment.
