We are in the same situation I laugh at the "kick him out" I guess the "refuses to leave" is missed on some. As far as "call the Police" I assume like me for years you have been down that path and the reason he is still with you is a result of lack of results from law enforcement. The legal system would rather leave them with us then they do not have to deal with them. The previous answer sounds so simple someone who has not had to deal with this. I wish there was a private bouncer service for parents like us where bonded bouncer could be hired to eject them. I love my son but this has taken it's toll on the entire family I am drained exhausted and very afraid for him I simply have no idea what do anymore. The police? just kick him out? we need real answers.
As parents you are no longer obligated to house your son on his eighteenth birthday. If you feel in danger, there is an option of filing a restraining order to keep him away from your house. Then, if he returns the local police will enter him into the corrections system.
Tough love can be effective; however, the changes come slowly. Much slower than one would care for. As a parent one questions their own love for their son because "ideally" one would never want to put someone through that if they "loved" him. The problem with that is if you do not give him the consequences for his bahavior, he will only become worse off than now. He has chosen that path let him see what happens. You can always reserve the right to help him if he demonstrates the desire and effort to change. Tough call!
