[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 742756, member: 23371"] Sorry I don't know the background to give informed thoughts. But your house, your rules. You don't owe a 32 yr old a roof. And you certainly shouldn't give him run of the house while you're away. Lock the doors, turn on the alarm and put your house on the cop's watch list. Period. The point here is that a temporary place to stay is a hotel, not Mom's. He doesn't need to worry today about an independent apt he needs a bed and a roof for a night. One thing you might use as leverage, if you choose, is to let him stay with kids for the custody weekends. For a period of months anyway. Contingent on him finding a room now. Don't comply with Mom's rules now Mom's visitation weekends not an option. Living in a college town myself with similar sons, yes there are rooms. But here those aren't easy to find for an adult who works part time with a spotty history. Lots for college students under 23. Older adults not so easy. Not that I'd let mine back in my house. But the reality may not be as easy as you think. There are homeless shelters! [/QUOTE]
