[QUOTE="wantpeace, post: 539273, member: 14002"] AG - When my difficult child was in treatment, there was a lot of glorification of drugs going on. It really bothered me and I even stated that to the counselor. My difficult child said treatment just gave people more ideas and connections. My first alanon meeting went well even though the leader wasn't there. It was just another couple (who have gone to meetings for a long time) and me, which worked very well for my first meeting. I plan to go to more. I really need to keep working on that first step. I can admit that my life has become unmanageable, but it's hard to admit I'm powerless. I think this is so difficult for parents because we feel we should be able to control our kids. I appreciate all the input I've gotten here. The support helps me so much! wantpeace [/QUOTE]
