[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 472346, member: 59"] We have agreed to continue paying difficult child's cellphone for several reasons, safety being one. It is true they are suppose to call their sponsor frequently and she may also have to call for rides to AA meetings. In the sober houses here they are not allowed to have a car until their restriction is over, anywhere from 30-90 days. So they have to make contacts at the meetings and call for rides. I'm surprised they won't get her into the sober hosue sooner, even if she has to go to another house first until the bed opens up. Also people come and go in these houses daily so for her to say two weeks seems strange to me. Can you call the house and verify this info? In the first sober house e was not allowed to have a phone for the first 30 days either. They are suppose to concentrate solely on their sobriety. As for the gas, can you get her a gas card and send it to her so you don't have to meet her every week and have her suck you into anything. We have decided to help our difficult child financially with just the basics as long as she is following the program. If she doesn't then she's on her own and most likely will be on the street.
