[QUOTE="Concerned Mom & Dad, post: 705528, member: 21063"] I have an 18 year old kid on a similar path. I wish I had the answers. The only input I can offer is that I am careful about tough love when the kid has anxiety issues. Do you know where he is going to get the money to pay you back if he doesn't have a job? I would be reluctant to set requirements that he can't possibly meet. Just sets him up for failure. I would focus on having him get a job. He may even need help with that. My son finally got a job delivering pizza. It is not the job we would have chosen fo him but he has stuck with it. It's the best thing he got going right now. [/QUOTE]
