I have driven Mac to a social services agency this morning for him to inquire about help getting work and housing.
So this is my life now. Crying in parking lot while my kid goes and explains being homeless at 18. I'm a monster.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Because books.
You're not, msbelle. You're doing what every parent is supposed to do -- teaching your child how to be self-reliant and independent in the world. He's made it kind of clear he won't learn that unless really pushed. This is a good thing, truly.

Our wings are not tired.
You are showing remarkable strength, mabelle. I wish I had been more firm with my son, and now I have a 27 yo teenager. Mac had plenty of choices. I'm sorry he has made it so hard on himself. Love and hugs.

Hugs to you and Mac too, msbelle.

Punishingly Intricate
I'm sorry it's so rough, msbelle. Love to you and Mac, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You are not a monster, msbelle. Mac has had plenty of completely reasonable options and many opportunities to figure them out. And now you are helping him figure out additional options by pointing him in the right directions.

Herding cats for fun
Better this kick in the butt at 18 than having a rude and surly man child of 30 refusing to speak to you, leave your house or stop playing video games. This is the hard part of parenting your brat.
((Msbelle)) stay strong.
