[QUOTE="Steely, post: 102400, member: 3301"] Well, it certainly seems that if it is terms of his probation that he is housed somewhere - the responsibility falls smack dab in the lap of the people that wrote that in as a condition. If they cannot find him housing, than, I would suggest they emancipate him as a legal adult. If he was emancipated, what do you think would happen if he stayed in a hotel, or had his own apt.? Even 12 year olds can cook microwave dinners, and walk to school or work, etc. I don't know him, but I just wonder what really would happen if there was not that constant authority figure he had to buck. I really wonder if he would dig within himself and start searching for some truth and peace. I mean, maybe he would steal, but why? Since he sounds like he is doing it purely for the attention (which is totally what my kid is about too - without an audience he has nothing). Just ideas.......again, big hugs, and sending many prayers and thoughts your way. [/QUOTE]
