Rather complicated

[Tink]

My ds will be 21 in a couple weeks. He's far too young to want to be tied down in a relationship yet and is feeling smothered by the one he's in. He had dated Shannon for a few months, then they broke up. A couple weeks later "friends" kind of pushed them back together. They broke up again and Joel wanted this to be the end of it.

One night Joel got a frantic call from Shannon asking him to come rescue her. She'd been raped and needed someone to help her get out of the city she was in. So he went and picked her up, and brought her home with him since she really has no home to go to. (Her adoptive mom kicked her out when she was 17 and Dads in VA and seems not to care)

So anyway, she's been with us for a couple months, and Joel's not happy about it, but feels trapped because she has no job, and no family or friends who will take her in. Greg and I have been supporting her along with our own 2.

We need to get her out of here, but seriously don't know how we're going to do it. She's not hard to have around, but has no marketable skills at all. She speaks so softly that people have trouble hearing her. She has no physical strength, has never been allowed to do any kind of work, and not to be nasty, but she's not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

She came to us with mountains of expensive rather sleezy clothes. She wears very short skirts and tiny camis year around. She can usually be found sitting under a blanket on our couch. If I am doing a project, she doesn't seem to mind helping, but I have to teach her how to do absolutely everything. She can't cook, had never loaded a dishwasher, wore out before I did when we were planting bulbs, etc.

I like her well enough, but seriously have no idea how she's going to get through life without some major help. She doesn't have a lot other than her looks (she's very pretty) going for her. She doesn't have her HS diploma yet.

So how do we get her moved out of our house without putting her at risk? She turned 19 today and is really on her own.
