What boundaries to set for my 29 yr old alcoholic son?

I'm so sorry that you've had to go through all of that. I will continue trying to find a meeting. My greatest struggle is my family being separated.
I'm not sure if I should let him continue to stay at my house. Ty.

@lisaav please consider this. His actions are already causing separation. You are worried about something that has already happened.
The rest of your family is undoubtably sad, angry, and perhaps even jealous because his bad behavior is getting all your attention. That’s what happened in my family.
He is going to do what he wants to do, and no matter how much you try, you will not be able to change him.
THE SERENITY PRAYER
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.
