[QUOTE="Sierramom3, post: 685158, member: 20263"] I sit here with tears in my eyes, feeling your pain. For 18 years we nurtured these babies, in the womb, at the breast, every feeding, tummy ache, on and on. And now to turn them out on the streets... it's against every fiber in my being, but what else is there to do? I worry that in their desperate state they will turn to crime - theft, prostitution, who knows what - and end up in jail, then prison. (I forgot to mention that my I found on my son's phone endless porn and a history of looking at Craigslist sex ads - and gun sites... so scary I can't even think about it). But we know that if we make it easy for them they have no incentive to change. At least by turning them out we have given them an incentive to change. Tell me about your son... why do you think he is different than your other sons? Is it some character flaw? My son is really smart - some of the top IQ tests in our school district - and handsome. So much wasted potential. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on your son. [/QUOTE]
