[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 762052, member: 4040"] I agree with Crayola. While your stepson does have the right to use substances, your husband has the right to decline the invitations of someone who is under the influence. Right now, I don't think that your stepson is capable of making the connection between staying sober and getting to see his father. Is your husband willing to go no contact unless son is actively working a program? Being the stepmom makes it tough. You want to protect your husband from the hurt, but it's not your kid so do you really have a voice? I don't have any specific advice for you, wish I did. My opinion, from a stepmom perspective, is that your husband can ask for son to be sober, but if it's a request that will be ignored by both of them, you'll be the bad guy. [/QUOTE]
