Hi there, son has been in two group homes and is now in residential. Has been out of the home for nearly two years due to drug/alcohol abuse and mental health issues. He is adopted from Ukraine at 3.5 year and is now 17.5 years old. Has had just about every diagnosis there is on him at one time or another. Right now has diagnosis of subtance abuse, anxiety, and adhd.
They may be releasing him the end of March and I do not know how we are going to do this. Both my husband and I are needing to get new jobs due to curcumstances. I start a new job on Monday 8am to 5pm. I know in a perfect world if we would tag team with the hours it would work. But he might have a job himself at 8am to 5pm. Is there anybody on here that has an emotionally challenged 17 almost 18 year old with drug/alcohol abuse issues and how are you doing this?
He will most likely be in alternative schooling for 3 hours a day, that's if he even goes
