My good friend's son and her fiance got into beef and the son moved (probably got kicked out) of the house. Now he is going from house to house with friends. He called me last night and asked could he stay in my extra room. I am trying to decide what to do, because if I kicked my child out I wouldn't any of my friends helping them because I would want them to learn a lesson and to grow up.
What are your thoughts?

I can understand why you aren't sure what to do, but what if you were the one to help him get his life back on course. A lot of times when people mess up, especially when they are "grown" when send them off because we no longer feel obligated to deal with their drama, but God still looks out for that person and all hope is not gone .. as long as he has breath in his body, he can turn his life around. BUT if him being in your home is going to cause you stress .. then pass. Just lay down the rules and treat him like a man and not a boy.
I say dont move him in, whatever he did he needs to stand up and be a man, I mean it really could as simple as him going back to his mother and they work it out. STAY OUT OF IT!!!!
Maybe I am missing something. You said your friends son got into some beef with his fiancee and she showed him the door, right? You can offer this man a place to lay his head for 1 maybe 2 nights, a week at the absolute most, but in the end, he needs to get himself together, go talk to his fiancee and decide if the relationship is something they are willing to salvage. The longer he stays out of his own home, the harder it will be for him to salvage that relationship.
