[QUOTE="overstressed, post: 645198, member: 18709"] Last week our 19 year old son stole from us again! First I want to give a little back ground info. We adopted him when he was 2 days old. He started smoking pot and using drugs around 14. This is when everything really started to get bad. He has been in and out of rehab numerous times for drugs, and nearly as many for psycological problems. He has been diag. with manic bi-polar, continues drug usehas no job or vehicle (he's had 3 and totalled 2). We have kicked him out 2 other times for stealing from us and our now 16yo daughter and allowed him to return but not in our house unless we're there.He stays in our camper when we're not. He had been doing better until Christmas when we bought him gifts instead of giving him cash. My wife came home from work early one day last week and he was standing next to the road, she stopped and ask him what he was doing, he says he's waiting for a ride. She called me and told me that he was acting strange, so when I got home I checked everything out and sure enough I had several things missing from my shop, which was all found the next day at a local pawn shop. They confirmed that he had sold the items the day before. When he was confronted he admitted taking them and says he owed some money and they were threatening him. I had given in many times in the past but not this time. I told him he had to find somewhere else to live. I have gotten sob stories from him ever since about have no where to go. I told him the best I could do for him was take him to a christian shelter. Overstressed [/QUOTE]
