[QUOTE="princess, post: 540946, member: 14860"] Hi after reading your post I feel like it could have been written by me-my son almost the same way except his issues started in senior year in high school-also good student -did get arrested for pot possession right before college started probation fine community service-has two jobs one at school one at grocery store-last two semesters he earned B's and A's but did flunk a Chemistry course-he thinks he has ADD we did go to counseling but he stopped once the counselor mentioned ADD medications thinks pot is better -several of the people he hangs out with have been arrested for pot possession as well as meth and cocaine he says he does not use these-but I do not trust him-also uses my older car for work told him if he drives stoned it will be taken away. I also had a great relationship once but now it is very strained-I was also in counseling but once he stopped going the counseling sessions did not go as well the counselor just kept suggesting Al-non which I just do not feel comfortable going to-I have spoken to a few other mothers whose sons had similar issues and I was told the met really nice girls and once the relationships started they became less and less involved with the bad influences and the drugs-my son has no steady girlfriend-how does his girlfriend feel about all this-perhaps she can be of help-I hope this works out for both of us -I also would like to have my son back [/QUOTE]
