[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 759927, member: 23706"] Dear Helpless, so very sorry. I think both drug use and mental illness (untreated) are parts of why these particular kids keep digging holes. I also wonder if the job your son told you about existed. Kay can make up the best stories usually followed by asking for money. It was very hard to say no to money. I would think "Maybe if I help just one more time...." For us it had been ten years paying for Kay AND her husband (he benefited of course). But they had Jaden too...it was hard to say no when he was with them. Do what your heart tells you. Nobody here knows what to do...not even always what WE should do with our own kids. In the end, we need to learn how to live a good life even while our troubled kids don't. Quite a trick but it can happen. I never dreamed I could raise a homeless child. I had all sorts of hopes and dreams for her. One.of them was that no matter what we would always be close. Right? That doesn't include her friends, her college degree, her job....etc. Sending prayers and much love. [/QUOTE]
