[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 720184, member: 21895"] This is so very true it cuts to the bone. My dear Copa. What don't they get?? Their lives would be so much easier embracing the help they are offered. My son has been gone all day and has not shown up for dinner. Stupidly I left my purse unattended and of course there is money missing. I doubt he will be home any time soon and when he does roll in he will be in no time or shape for a conversation. Will not have school tomorrow because it is a PD day. You just want to shake them until their teeth rattle. Mind you not too much because I wouldn't want to shake loose the 8 fillings he just had at the dentist. All your idioms translate to Canadian very well. Yes being played like a fiddle, playing along with the application process wasting everyone's time. Doing just enough to be doing nothing. It's heart wrenching and so disappointing. I agree they figure out how to survive. This time I want him out and not temporarily, I want him on social assistance and knowing he is not coming back home. This can't be another 2-3 week couch surfing venture. It won't be easy for him to find a place to rent. Smoker, pot smoker, no job. Not an excuse to stay with us though. [/QUOTE]
