"Scott's message is excellent. As someone who has worked as a substance abuse counselor and had children that abused pot, you have to set boundaries and refuse to enable your son. At 18, if he's smart enough to figure out to steal $100 from his brother, he's smart enough to figure out how to find shelter."
here, here ! Addicts figure out how to continue getting high without working, they can figure out other things, too. It takes some cunning and street smarts to be an addict. Addicts are really good at finding those who will enable them.
