[QUOTE="keista, post: 434583, member: 11965"] [B]NO votes[/B] [LIST=1] [*] PPL close to you do not think you should bring him back. [*] His father won't take him in [*] you don't think he should come back [*] your children have disabilities, and 22y/o being back would take much time away from them. [/LIST] [B]Yes votes[/B] [LIST=1] [*]He wants to come back [*]PPl who have NO CLUE think he should come back [*]CRAZY pastor thinks you should let him back but even if you do you are still 'cursing' him, so this is actually a half NO vote. [/LIST] So, it comes down to simple math. 4 1/2 [B]NO [/B]to 2 1/2 [B]yes[/B] (#3 in yesses got split up to 1/2s) Ignore the ppl that don't have a clue. My BFF struggles with this and her brother who is BiPolar. His friends who are near him are always calling her (she is several states away) criticizing her for "not doing more" She can't. She has a family of her own to worry about. I know it's a tremendously difficult decision to make. I pray I'll never be in your shoes. But I think you know what the RIGHT decision is, but are getting stuck on all the 'guilt makers' in the background who have absolutely no understanding of everything that is involved. After rereading what you wrote about the preacher again, and the epiphany I had as I was writing out the votes, I think crazy preacher man's real message was, "[B]Don't go home[/B] because you will just get 'cursed' again. (Stay out on your own and move forward)" So in essence, the man is right, but the message got lost on your son. Read through similar stories on this forum. Use keyword detachment. Strength going out to you in making this difficult decision. [/QUOTE]
