[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 657244, member: 1550"] It doesn't feel good. It about killed me to make my sweet daughter leave because of the drugs. She fortunately had a place to go and straightened out. Your son has the same option. He seems to sabotage every chance he gets and that isn't your fault. He doesn't have to tell you where he is. He's of age. Understand, he has learned how to use people and survive on the streets. He will not die. Maybe eventually, as he matures, he will learn that there are consequences to not growing up. Not everyone loves him li ke you do and if he skips community service, I assume there will be disciplinary action taken. Maybe he thinks, "My Mom is a lawyer and she can get me out of any trouble I'm in." In my opinion only, and obviously I could be wrong, I feel you've down your share of lawyering for him and he needs to face the music himself. It is what it is. My Dad always says this. It's true! Hugs and I'm so sorry you are hurting. [/QUOTE]
