[QUOTE="Lil, post: 616001, member: 17309"] Well, when he left yesterday, I had a little talk with him. He left with his clothes unwashed, even though they'd been in the house for two weeks. He left with no additional money, other than gas to get back. He left with no food, and the cafeteria is closed until Jan. 2. I warned him, he wouldn't take anything. He did mention that his friend has found a cheap trailer to rent down there, so if they are kicked out of the dorm for being suspended, (I don't expect them to get back in) they plan on living there. I told him all money and car access stops if he isn't in school, so it better be on a bus line. He asked about the $700 student loan in my savings account...he wants to use it for rent, etc...I told him his dad and I would have to discuss that, since he owes us money. Finally I told him that, I don't know if his life is just revolving around pot or something else, but when he's tired of it, he has alternatives. In the end we don't really care about college, we just want him to be happy. He didn't deny it, but said he is happy, mostly. I told him it's easy to be happy when someone else pays the bills, but he might find it a little harder when it's all on him. So now, one day at a time I guess. [/QUOTE]
