why do caseworkers assume that it's your responsibility to just drop everything and rush out there to bring him some clothes? why can't he wear the same outfit a few days in a row? let him stink a little bit, it's not like you have to smell him, right? tons of people in NA meetings are homeless, and wear the same outfit everyday, they're still allowed. it's kind of aggravating how the people involved with your addict seem to think you should just take care of everything. bring them cigarrettes, bring them clothes, bring them their favorite snack every now and then...
orrrr, how about this, he has a place to sleep, he's warm and he isn't starving or dying of sickness or dehydration, that should be good enough.
