@talbot Perhaps an honest discussion with your son about how he can help pull himself up, will help you both. I am sure you support your son in his efforts to get a job, and it seems there are so many available these days. Perhaps helping him set up a budget, and allocate monies where needed, will be an eye-opener to him. End of the month is a long way off! We always want to see our children succeed, but sometimes there needs to be motivation to get moving, don't you agree?

If there is a reason your son has not been able to get/hold a job, perhaps there is a training program though your county services that can assist him?
