[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 493489"] David. I think that sounds like an excellent plan. You might want to think ahead about what you are willing to do if he ends up dropping out and being on his own... and certainly come to us if that happens. Several of us have also been in that scenario. We always took the stand that we will help you help yourself... and in recent months that has been really important with my son. We have been willing to help pay for treatment and rent at a sober house... and we are paying money for food etc. at the sober house. I hope your son doesn't get to that point but wises up way before then but it may be worth thinking about now (but not discussing with him at this point). I know when my son was on his own I also did take him grocery shopping several times... just because my mommy heart wanted him to eat. It does get really hard to follow through when they are on their own and so young... which is why it is good to think about it now. TL [/QUOTE]
