[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 753067, member: 15032"] Thanks Copa. I agree that the hard work my son put into his book-work earning certifications and passing tests was very good for him. He proved he could be a good student. It was not time wasted. He grew from each experience. After drug use you are afraid they have fried their brain! His is still intact thank God. He also has worked very hard at the few menial jobs he has had here. He has saved $3,000 so he can look for another job now that is better and may have a future. However I am having a very hard time with him not working or being in class right now. Very hard. He is spending a lot of time with his father - who works from home. So why can't I just be happy with that for now?? I also agree with you about a "career". My son feels sad that he "just doesn't know what he wants to do". He feels he is the only one because our other two just knew! I told him many of us don't. I liked to type so I decided to get into the secretarial field. I ended up doing very well and have a job that exceeded all of my expectations. And I don't work too hard but I do work smart. My son says we are never satisfied. I hope to be satisfied but not there yet with him. The ladies that were somewhat abrasive are no longer on this site. After reading your post I remembered another one that recently left. I do think that most of us have good intentions here. [/QUOTE]
