[QUOTE="Hilli, post: 705839, member: 21111"] Update - he's been out of the house since Thursday. Really Friday because he snuck back into the house in the middle of the night on Thursday. But hasn't been back since. Unfortunately, it appears my mom has caved and he is staying there. She says she can't send him out in the cold and he can't get a job with no shower or way to stay clean and presentable. I tried to remind her that he's been saying he's getting a job for over a year and a half, has lied, stolen and having a warm shower and clean clothes so t make him get a job. She is a total enabler and I'm out of words. Any advice to help her understand she's not helping him? It is very cold out right now and I feel bad about that but he knew the expectations and chose to not follow through. He says he's getting a job when he's 21 (6 weeks away). I don't believe anything will change when he turns 21. If I know my mom, she'll let him stay there until then believing things will change and more time will pass with no movement from him. Help!!!!
