[QUOTE="LoneStar14, post: 150916, member: 4947"] I've been following your story and my prayers go out to you. I don't know if I could ever detach either. But I agree the serenity prayer is a great idea. I hope he does show up at Fort Knox. The dishonorable discharge will follow him for the rest of his life. Andre doesn't need to have a Court Martial following him also. He needs to take the time he'll be locked up for some reflection and maturing. You can't do that for him. He needs to do that by himself. You do need to detach yourself enough to let him stand and fall on his own. He made the decisions that got him to this point without you, he needs to pay the piper and straighten up without you. You can only be his parent and be there to support him and not bail him out, not his coach to tell him what to do or his lawyer. Its hard not to try to fix it for him as a parent. You're not going to be around forever to bail him out. Stay strong. Hugs out to you. [/QUOTE]
