[QUOTE="Robinboots, post: 343637, member: 4542"] Ah yes, mine steals too. And I'm pretty sure the judge - who's great, by the way, will realize all the ramifications of difficult child's behavior. The drugs, however, are just too much for me to "play" with, esp. since difficult child initially refused to even take them and yes, had to be CO'd to do so. And yes, I handed him one every day and watched him take it. I didn't micromanage his life - I simply documented, just in case. The last few weeks, which seemed to be going well, aka the last few since court on Feb. 4, I barely wrote down anything. I might have said, "Hey, it's laundry day" once a week, but that was it. If he said he had to work, fine, bye, see ya later tonight; if he asked to go to the movies, fine, what time, what show? See ya. Even if I "knew" he was up to no good, I chose to "believe" him unless something showed otherwise. I worried and stewed over his community service and DJO check-ins from October to December. After that, well, too bad - on him. I assume that on Tuesday, when he checks in with K, he'll mention that he was "kicked out". And she'll likely come down on him, big time. Imagine she'll call me - that's fine, I love her to pieces, she's wonderful; she can and will handle it, she knows all the stuff. Last night at midnight I texted him and asked where he was; today at noon he texted back and asked why I wanted to know. I said "just checking". That's been it. Well, and of course he announced to FB that he'd been "kicked out again". Whatever. 6 hours or so and NO ONE has responded. Ha. [/QUOTE]
