[QUOTE="tryagain, post: 661637, member: 14865"] Hey Albatross, I am so glad to read of your son's progress! Yay!!! When one of our DCs does well, it gives us all a glimmer of hope that our individual situations can also improve. I'm putting in my $0.02 for the idea of him paying it off by doing work for you. When we were saddled with several months of paying for the apartment with Loser #1 once my Difficult Child daughter moved out and away from him, she worked for me on an hourly basis and I kept a ledger. The nature of my job is that I am delighted to have her come in and assist me, and she earned an imaginary $10/hour in "apartment hours" to mark off from her debt. She was a valuable help to me. I think it was important to stipulate that this was working off a debt and not just a handout. [/QUOTE]
