[QUOTE="lovemyson1, post: 659571, member: 16643"] Somewhere, it's so very true what you are saying. And yes, my husband and I are guilty of getting excited and thinking we could bring him home and help him. We both finally realize that bringing him home only enables him. He even admitted that because he knew he was living there for free, he could miss work, and get high. On his own, he will need to think about his decisions more carefully and he will have obligations. He's been sleeping in his car and his girlfriend said she let him sleep over too. He texted me and said, "I love you, I did have a small slip but I'm not going to fall, I'm pushing forward and doing the right thing, just know I'm doing good and I love you" Then he said, "I should have a spot in less than a week tho :-)" So looks like he's finding his way. His "small slip up" is MAJOR to me! However, as we all know, he needs to want to change, he needs to hate this drug and what it's done to him and eveyone who cares for him. He also told my husband that he got a job making $3,000 a month. He seems to be proud of himself. So I guess I will watch and see. Actions are the only thing I'm looking for. But no matter what, he won't live with us again. I'm hoping and praying that he has the strength to resist this evil drug and that he doesn't harm himself or others in the process. Thank you again for you words of wisdom and encouragement. [/QUOTE]
