35. This is part of what keeps me from just letting him loose
It IS harder to find work out there. It's not the same world it was 30 years ago, when you could finish high school and get a job.

And the military is not an option for my kid (he has a degenerative eye disease that makes him ineligible).

But truth be told, as hard as it is, he's not giving it his all. I think he's depressed, but he's not interested in seeing a doctor or a therapist, so I feel like my hands are tied.
