Mike has transitioned to his halfway house. It seems like a pretty good deal for him. He is in an apartment with up to 5 other guys, but I think there are only 2 or 3 there now. They have a living room, a full kitchen, and two bedrooms. The building also has a lounge and there is a rec building. He has to sign out when he leaves the building, but has quite a bit of freedom. It looks like he will be able to graduate from High School from an Alternative Learning Center that is part of a fairly prestigious suburban high school. If he takes advantage of this, it can really work to his advantage.
The program seems good for him and I even got the administrative assistant to sign up for adoption training while I was waiting for Bart to take Mike shopping for his birthday present.
So at this time, all is well. The whole transition has been emotionally exhausting for us, but it seems like it will go well for him if he allows it to.

That's good to hear. Let us know how it goes.
Have you seen this video on FASD? I thought you might find it interesting.
