[QUOTE="pinevalley, post: 510830, member: 3710"] Thanks for your words of encouragement. This is Definitely NOT where my h and I wanted our difficult child to end up. But our difficult child is incredibly stubborn, and he always has to learn everything the hard way. I know that this will be a tough experience for him, but I am really hoping that this will be his rock bottom and he will want to stay clean when he gets out. I am having a hard time with what I should say to everyone when they ask about our difficult child. Many of my friends do not know that he had a drug problem, or that he was in rehab the first time. Several of my best friends know all about our struggles with our son, but I have not mentioned any of his problems to many other people. It has been so difficult recently with our difficult child stealing everything that I have missed several activities with groups that I belong to, so most people just know that I have not been as active as I usually am. I am curious to know how much you told other people about your difficult child's. Eventually people will ask me about our son's graduation plans, and prom, etc, and I feel that I will have to explain that he is in jail. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to handle these difficult conversations about our difficult child's? [/QUOTE]
