[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 554124"] It sounds to me like you have a really good head on your shoulders and are thinking about this very clearly, even in the midst of the chaos, pain and worry. I think you are doing all the right things. The sudden change in behavior is worrisome and does indicate some serious drug use. A word of caution about drug testing him.... there are ways around drug tests, things that dont show up that are scarier and more dangerous than pot so I would suggest you keep conditions for him coming home based on his behavior rather than drug tests... drug testing gets you into this strange and slippery slope. So yes he needs to treat you respectfully, obey your rules at home, and certainly not bring or use drugs in your home. BUT you really have no control about what he does outside of your home, so I wouldnt even go there. You dont want to create a situation where his main goal is how to get around the drug tests. I speak from experience on this issue. And keep coming here... many voices of experience hear along with a lot of heart. TL [/QUOTE]
