[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 665175, member: 15801"] Totally agree with child My son has also been in jail several times...the longest for about 3 months. I didn't write him much because I am not a big letter writer but we did visit and I did put money in his canteen. How you handle these things is totally up to you and you absolutely should only do what you are comfortable doing. And if he is being verbally abusive to you then step back because there is no reason to take his abuse. However one thing that I thought about when my son was in jail (and he was young as he is now 23) was that the only thing keeping him from being a hardened criminal is the love of his mother! And I still believe that...even more now that he seems to be getting on the right track and is serious about recovery! But like child said he didn't get to that point until he was ready....but I do think our love makes a difference even if we don't see positive results right away. [/QUOTE]
