The couple of times he had a good job he was fired. We recently found out he's been homeless and trying to live off "friends" for most of 2008. <br />Each time we find out stuff like this we wonder if we should step in? Then we think of all the times we have helped him and his mother and her husband have helped him and yet he continues to lack progress towards a decent and healthy life. Where does a parent draw the line? It's SO HARD.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14974376008651624094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11786280.post-2764061363965038792009-04-23T20:13:00.000-06:002009-04-23T20:13:00.000-06:00You made me go give my cat a kiss.
