what 2 do

My son was in a drunk driving accident this past week. He was a passenger.
How he survived, I just dont know. Grace I guess.
He is just so lost and I dont know how to help him. He will be 21 this fall. He graduated hghschool. and has a few jobs. Lived in a few states.
He is causing havic in my home with his stepdad( who has been his dad since he was 15 months)
He lived with his dad in highschool, and he has some issues with him that he just will not talk to me about... or anyone for that matter,


I am just so fucking scared for him. I thought he was dead when we went to the hospital. Fell to the ground hyperventalting when they said he was going to be ok...

I am going to fall into a million pieces I am afraid..

Part of me wants to kick him out.. he is hanging with really bad people, it is not who we are. I dont do drugs, I dont hang with people who do. He is out till all hours,

If I kick him out he will be homeless, as he has burned all his bridges with his friends and others..

I am not saying he is an alcoholic, but the friends and family forum will give you some insight on how to deal with this behavior. Click here to enlarge

I will tell you what my family has done with my cousin. They pain upfront for the cheapest motel room they could find, packed his shit and dropped him off there. They continued to pay for the room until he got a job and got himself out of there.

Might not work, but it did for them.

That would be a great idea, except I simply can not afford to do something like that....
I just dont know what to do.

What does your dh think? Would you feel comfortable giving him a timeline of 30-60 days or whatever? And if in that time he doesn't come up with a job, he is out anyway.

FYI, my kids are 3 and 6, I have no idea what I would do. Click here to enlarge
