[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 693166, member: 15032"] Thanks LMS. I just talked to him. He is now in the PHP for two weeks back where he started ORIGINALLY when he went to Florida. They won't give him his phone or laptop for 2 weeks but can make house phone calls after 3 days. He said he is glad he's back in Delray but depressed he's "there". Feels like a prisoner. Only there because he has no money. I reminded him he is there because he [B]needs [/B]to be there. He needs to take it more seriously this time. We did not send him to Florida to bury him. He needs more support than he thought or than we thought. He always wants to take the easy way out. Oh and he's getting a cold. Ugh. His dad is going to visit him for his 21st birthday August 26. He asked about that. Said he wants to "do something" for his birthday. My husband wasn't sure he would still go but I told him he needs to go. I don't have as much vacation time and it's a good time for them to repair their relationship which was really good before relapse and now is non-existent. He cannot drink when he is with him and I hope he will keep his promise. My husband likes his beer. Maybe he's taking it all more seriously now too. How can anyone be equipped to handle all of this. I told my son it's all up to him. He needs the support. He needs to be able to walk away from triggers. They are everywhere. For now he is safe. Does he get it? Is he willing to put the work in? I just don't know. [/QUOTE]
