[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 389196, member: 1550"] When my daughter wanted to quit using drugs...WHEN IT WAS HER DECISION...moving was a Godsend to her. We sent her to live with a relative in another state and she didn't find trouble. She put her life together and started over. She did not have a car. She had to walk everywhere, even to work. She had strict rules to follow, but she wanted to be able to stay there so she did what she was told (somthing she never did for us!) We didn't want to move so we moved her. She is still there. To this day, she feels funny coming up to visit us so we go down there. She is always afraid of running into one of her old "drug" mates. And some were quite dangerous with nothing to do but have long memories and think about revenge. My answer/opinion? Move HIM if he is sincere about doing things a better way. And force him to live on his own with minimal help from you. [/QUOTE]
