[QUOTE="Csmom, post: 759720, member: 25643"] My son went to a sober living house in Georgia. He was arrested in Georgia and was able to get a OR Bond to go to this place. We refused to bail him out so this was his way of getting bonded out. I thought it was a great place for guys trying to get back on their feet. This place requires them to work or volunteer. No laying around all day. They pay a weekly rent and have to contribute to the house. They had daily meetings at the house and could go to any other meetings of their choice. My son was there for about 3 months. He got a job in the community at a restaurant waiting tables. They guys at the house helped each other out to get to work and back. My son was making more money than he has ever made. Unfortunately, he got tired of being sober and starting smoking synthetic marijuana. He left the place for about a week and confessed to the guy running the sober living place that he had messed up and wanted to go back to the sober living place. They welcomed him back and he lasted about another couple of weeks and left again. There are some great sober living facilities out there that are affordable and require the person to work and pay for their rent. I would recommend this place to any guy wanting to put the work in. Unfortunately my son didn’t want to stay sober. Hopefully one day he will want to make better choices. [/QUOTE]
