[QUOTE="Tired out, post: 744681, member: 23103"] TMT, This whole situation is awful I feel sad and a bit scared for you. Maybe it is time for you to just stop worrying about him and what he does. If he does something to make this all worse it isn't on you. You have done your best. If you want to let him sleep in your home until sentencing that's up to you (obviously) But you really do need to stop telling him what to do, and quit asking what he is doing and where he's going. He is too old and messed up for you to ask. he only sees it as you being control freak. And really ask yourself, "is it any of your business?" you want it to be becasue you want to make it better and help BUT he doesn't want to listen. Again. You have done your best. Sink or swim, it is up to him , not you. You gave him the life raft, he let the air out. If he gets back on plane, stay out of it- so long. You are wasting your money. Buy a plane ticket for yourself to someplace nice NOT for that ungrateful addict. My brat is only 21 ( I don't think he is using anything (pot was the only thing he ever got into and where he works does random drug tests) but when he texts and asks me for some thing (usually money, still living paycheck to paycheck) I don't ask questions anymore. I just say yes or no depending on what it is. PLEASE start putting yourself and your hubby 1st. [/QUOTE]
