    I suggest letting him stay with his mother and not forcing him to move.His fears would likely come true and he would resent you, his mother and himself. help him graduate but let him learn from his own life choices. It might be a great help to go through a online at home school to finish his hs. k12 http://www.k12.com/ is online public school that is free but he would still have to do the work on consistent schedule. ALC http://www.independent-learning.com/distance-program/ is a private school that does distant learning that would likely be more flexible so he would have a easier learning and be able to get his diploma sooner. good luck.

    His mother has kicked him out over a month ago–she’s been couch surfing. Now’s he’s kicked out of his ‘trade’ program.

    He made the decision to come here–as he feels there are no options there.

    I don’t know if GF will break up with him and neither does he. When I asked him if his feared were based in ‘experience’ or ‘knowledge’ he said, no just fear. And there are no guarantees anyway.

    I have found a community college for ‘adults’ who would earn a HS diploma–not a GED. So that’s good. He will be around students his age and older–a very different set than regular high schoolers.

    I’ll look into online schools—thanks for links!
