[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 705221, member: 15801"] Actually Susie that was really helpful. The reason for moving home was he came back from out of state to face up to his legal problems (which I was proud of him for). He did a couple of months in jail and then came home. The goals were for him to get a job and get his life together. But truthfully they were not super clearly stated. He definitely had them but I am not sure he is clear about them now. So part of the conversation is to clarify his goals and like you said he needs to be making progress forward and right now he is not. But thinking about goals and progress is a way to make this a positive conversation about his future rather than a negative one about what he is not doing. thanks. [/QUOTE]
