[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 753344, member: 15032"] How old is your son Laura? My son just got a job at Dunkin Donuts. While it's not a great job, it is steady work and it is close to home. He will be starting a 2 year degree in January. He tried welding but found it was not for him although my husband wanted him to "just finish" the training he did not but he does have all the certifications that he needs to retake the last part so could go back and do it if he chooses but I feel that doing something he hates for a living is foolish unless he was in dire straights. As long as you are at peace with how your son is managing things that is all you can ask for. It really is up to him/them anyway isn't it? Our worry and fret helps no one. I am the QUEEN of worry and fret trust that!! These adult children that have dealt with addiction are really behind the eight ball when they decide to fly right. I wish I could fix it all but I cannot either. My son still struggles a lot with social anxiety and I wish I could make it all better for him but I hope that with time and maturity it will get better. I pray a lot too because that's what I do. :angel2: [/QUOTE]
