[QUOTE="Andy4382, post: 757488, member: 24520"] Welcome, I have taken advise from most of these folks that have commented to your post. They and I have been it a lot of situations that your going thru. My son is 32, still lives on property with me and my wife. He is a addict for half of his life. We keep a roof over his head because he doesn't seem to want to. My wife's sister feeds him and so do we. He never keeps a job for very long because he has a lazy bone or 2. We pray that some day he will see for himself that he is living the wrong life and stop using. My wife doesn't want him on the street if there is a chance he will come around. The other reason is if he happens to O.D. she doesn't want him on the streets. She puts herself in the line of fire with him all the time. He lies so much you cant tell if he is telling the truth. He has stolen money form his on grand parents when they where still alive. We have to lock up pills, money and valuables in a safe. I can go on and on. If from what I read he doesn't live with you. I would keep it that way. You can beg, plead, roof over there head and feed them but until they want to change You have no control over there actions. I have learned here that I cant do any thing for him. I don't want to miss treat him either but some times your emotions will take over and I have a hard time controlling them when it comes to miss treating my wife. We all love or kids. We all want to fix them. Advise I have is If the addict doesn't live with you then don't let them move in. It will cause chaos. [/QUOTE]
