[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Focus on what you can do to get this young man launched -- to college, with aid. Trying to perfect the here-and-now is so unimportant compared to helping this young man launch into independent adulthood. And he's close.[/quote]

This!! My boyfriend also moved in with us when I was a senior in high school. My parents gave him tons of chores and he was thrilled to be a part of a family. His parents were divorced and his mom was always off with other boyfriends- leaving my boyfriend without food or money for weeks. He was really hungry. He should have emancipated himself because his dad was wealthy and he really got screwed over with college because of his dads income. Dad wouldn’t give him money or help (said his mom should pay because it was in their divorce decree but mom refused too). Anyways we helped him a lot with college apps. But the money aspect was really hard. He ended up at a community college because it was all he could afford while working. He couldn’t get enough loans for the state college he wanted. [/quote]

Wow.  This is sad.  Wonder what became of him.[/quote]
