[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 206654, member: 3626"] Kicking him to the curb is probably the best thing you could have done for him. As much as we love our kids, they need to learn that there are repercussions for their actions -- even by their parents. You drew the line, he didn't just step over it, he wiped the line out. I'm glad you remembered where it was. As was said, be sure and have plans in place of what you will do if he asks to come home; if he asks for help for his drug use; if he tries to break in (yes, that's likely, too). The more you prepare for the what ifs, the better. It saves a lot of missteps. If you can, go to Al-Anon or Narcotics Anonymous. You can get a lot of help, support and understanding from those who have walked in your shoes. Many hugs for your pain. Please know that you truly did the right thing. [/QUOTE]
