[QUOTE="country, post: 733768, member: 20890"] Thank you, everyone... I'm sorry for my delay in response. It's been a whirlwind of a week. He was given a diploma and earned CNA certification in school. Actually, top of his class in his CNA and aced his boards - the kid has skills he just needs to use them! He's home for one week. He applied, interviewed and has been accepted at a group home program 5 hours from home. He'll have to work or go to school full time and work with staff on independent living skills - the program sounds truly amazing and it is a miracle there was an open bed. He realizes he is on his own and that I would not house him after this week. He has accepted that I cannot commit to anything now and that we will take it a day at a time - he was pushing me to commit he could come home in 3 months and has backed off that. I've put resources in his hands and am encouraging him the best I can - the rest is up to him. I again thank you all for your wisdom, it is invaluable. [/QUOTE]
