[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 176200, member: 1233"] What Star said. I think it is time to call the case worker and tell her to get him OUT of your home. Time to have him placed. He will NOT see any reason to make any growth unless this happens. And YOU, my dear lady, have been through ENOUGH! I do agree that difficult child 2 has very little respect for his father's ability to stay sober, doesn't he. Alateen would be a wonderful thing for him. It would be a process but would help difficult child 2 put the responsibility for ex's alcohol abuse on ex. It would also help difficult child 2 see that he holds NO blame for the problem. Kids really DO assume they are to blame. on the other hand, isn't it nice to know that difficult child 2 thinks you are so powerful? Apparently you have the power to make a grown man be addicted to a substance!!! (Snicker at the IDEA, NOT at your difficult child 2 - I was the sis of an alcoholic who thought it was her fault from about age 9 or 10). Star really does have a lot of in real life experience and wisdom in these issues. Hugs, [/QUOTE]
