[QUOTE="princess, post: 605997, member: 14860"] thanks everyone who has given me advise so far. My son will not go into inpatient treatment center...we tried to convince him it would be the best thing. At first he said he would kick it himself and then the counselors at the psyche unit talked to him and he finally agreed to the intensive outpatient counseling. We also tried to talk him out of going back to school but he said he wants to go to school. We are not paying for this he is financing this himself we told him that. Also his job at the school is work study so he would have to be in school to work. My insurance only pays for two treatment centers in my area and the stay is only 30 days. They only pay 1 stay a year and only for 3 stays after that it is our money. My husband stated that he has worked hard and saved all these years and does not want to spend all the money he worked so hard to make on treatment when we are not sure it will work. As far as vacation we planned this over a year ago and both of us really want to go-not sure I would enjoy it though. I talked to my friend who stated she would check on my son if we would go away but she works...and when he leaves for classes I have no idea if he would go somewhere and use. My son and I talked a little while ago and he tells me he hates feeling so bad detoxing and he is not going to use anymore-I am not so sure about that...I tried again suggesting the inpatient treatment but he will not hear of it.
