They are looking out for you.

I'm too upset to post right now, but I wanted to thank you all for your awesome support, I will try to do the right thing, but I am going to the interview tomorrow...Post more after dinner when Jack and I have another 'chat' about this. :(

Pam,
Thanks for checking in.
Everything is going to be all right.

Pam I just want you to know that I know how hard this is for you. I also know how badly you need this.

I don't care what you do just feel good about what you do.


I am here for you either way, all the way.

I am with the others here....
I think you are wonderful.
I want what is best for you right now.
It has been all about jack for years what about pammy for now?

I feel just awful, I just can't decide if I should take it and leave or not. Mom said I should take it if they offer 12, if they offer 9.5 leave it and forget it. She also said that I could come there too if all hell breaks loose here. And tonight it's been just awful. :(

I am glad....It sounds like your mom is being very supportive of you.
You are under a great amount of stress....maybe if you spent the night at your moms you would be able to sort thru stuff...or better yet how about the weekend?

I wish I could, that would set Jackie off for sure, I wish I was ballsy enough to walk in there and tell Jack no job no go, this kid goes group home....But it's just so hard. :(

you really have to be fair to Jackie and it sounds as if you can no longer give him the help he deserves and desperately needs. He needs a group setting from everything you have said and what professionals have told you. for Jackie's sake you need to rescue him out of the situation he is now in and tell you yourself you have done the best you could do. Don't get on your own case for not being able to handle him at this juncture. It isn't your fault.
