[QUOTE="seo, post: 599798, member: 16528"] I called my local county office and was given a list of groups by a very helpful and insightful person. There is one I want to attend... My son was living with his father and step mom, the step mom and my son didn't get along. My son went to live with his dad at age 13, He was saying threatening harmful things to me and tormenting his sister (which she at age 7-8) was wanting move out because she couldn't take it anymore with her brother, I spent everyother nite in the bathroom crying because I didn't know what to do. (also he was diagnosed with ADAD,)..anyway I was a single mom at the time and thought his dad could handle him more than I..... Midwestmom, It is like you already know.....at 17 his stepmom charged him with "curse and abuse"....(at an appeal hearing it was dismissed) I asked if he wanted to come and live with me to get out of that situation, he didn't accept my offer....a few months later he called me (more problems with his stepmom and his dad) so I dropped everything that nite and picked him up in tears because of all the horrible things he told me about his dad and stepmom and how they were treating him...............after about a month of living with him, I began to realize that he was more than likely lying. Two days before he turned 18 he moved in with his girlfriend family after a confrontation we had. later I learned that he lied about me and how I was treating him (I guess to get more sympathy)...and unfortunately this has been his MO for several times more after that....(that was painful to find out, yet I kept hanging around for more)... I am not sure if he is fascinated with fire,,,there was a 16 year old involved, and since he was 18, he was the responsible one. I cannot be sure if drugs were involved A man he was living with before posted bail for him a week ago and he went back to live with him (a free place to live and food in exchange for helping the man with whatever he needed, my son didn't cooperate which is why he became homeless two days ago. I don't understand why my son is not more grateful) and now this man who is responsible since he bailed him out is considering revoking the bail.....I wish he would,I hate to say, but at least my son would have a place to stay and maybe figure out that he is just not entitled to others peoples kindness. Everyone my son lived with has been more than kind and helpful to him only to have him turn around and lie about them to be taken in by another family....it is so sad [/QUOTE]
