[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 467766, member: 1550"] Well, since then this son has left the family...lol. I think it was his coldness that scared her. She knew if s he messed with him, he would not have an ounce of sympathy and would throw her out. She knew that WE were not the same as him that way...for us it was really hard to make her leave. She was the one who called her brother because she was sort of close to him before he left us behind. If he had said "no" we still would have made her leave. As far as helping us out, he did because of the way he is. BUT Daughter had to decide herself to quit or it would not have worked. Actually, she liked moving away from all her druggie friends. They were her main problem every time she tried to quit. They would harass her to death until she gave in and got them drugs or did drugs with them if only to shut them up. They were not nice and could be violent. She had tried quitting in the past only to give in when the peer pressure got too hard. If a child is ready to quit using drugs, I think it's an excellent idea to help him/her move far away, if possible, so the kid can start fresh. If he/she is serious about quitting he will not seek out drug using friends in his new environment. Make no mistake about it...my daughter was READY to quit when she did. Until they are, and it has to come from THEM, they will not quit. Funny thing is, we thought Daughter was just using pot. Now that she is c lean, we found out she was using meth too and other drugs. She told u s that she'd do it at night when we were asleep. It's not easy to quit using meth, but she did. To this day, she has terrible complexion problems, which could have been caused by her old meth use. [/QUOTE]
