Really could use some advice. Our 20-yo son is "secretly" spending all his paycheck on alcohol and Ubers to the liquor store and vape store. He has also stolen money from us and his brothers to support these habits. My partner and I are working through the Accountability Plan, but this seems much bigger than something we can address in an accountability conversation. We had some conversations a couple of weeks ago and he tells me he is no longer drinking, but it is not true. Meanwhile, his car is in the shop and we have to drive him to work, which has been a major hardship for us (we only have one car and it's 25 min from home, so it takes 2-3 extra hours of driving per day for us, his parents, since I either have to drive my husband to work so that I have the car, or my husband has to leave work to come home and get our son) He never offers us gas money, and when we have a conflict and can't take him, he balks at paying for an Uber since he has no money. We are so overwhelmed and don't know where to begin.
