Freedom - the resources you mentioned are the same things I mention to my son. When I look online it seems there are programs available, I know times are extremely hard now and the number of people trying to tap into the resources is probably huge - so I imagine it is frustrating for them.

My sons response is "I try all the places people suggest but . . ." Couldn't he try places he thinks of, or while at the library (watching his episodes of Hero) couldn't he do some research???

So I guess my question is do I still keep suggesting or just give it up?

I know the answer but it is hard to see the "guard desk" number come up on my phone at work (he's calling from the lobby) and not answer. My heart starts to pound and it's hard to breathe. Yet at the same time I think what the heck, I told you yesterday the $50 I gave him was "good bye" money and that I would never meet w/him alone. Doesn't he hear me. I have no credibility with him, I've stated my boundaries and walked right through them every single flippin' day. It has to start somewhere huh? The question I keep asking people is how long will it take . . . how many days will he keep asking and if I keep saying "no" before he will believe me? Yuck, don't answer - I spent 28 years being uncredible . . .
