[QUOTE="Wakegirl, post: 578750, member: 15912"] Again, this forum provides amazing support....thank you all!!! Feeling just a tad uneasy today. Had a friend send me a text to ask how court went yesterday. When I informed her that I had kicked difficult child out, her reply was, "I do understand. I just worry that pushing him into this new lifestyle will just cause him to fall ever more. What if there is no rock bottom for him?". UGH! I know she meant well, but boy did it make me start questioning the decision. She has no kids of her own, but she did grow up with 2 step brothers who were drug abusers and much more. One of them was killed out on the street during an altercation with another drug addict. I assume that's another part of my fear? What if he never reaches rock bottom....what if he ends up being one of those people I pass on the streets, begging for money. Oh geez....I got to stop my brain! I'm sure I'll hear from him soon. He'll need clothes and his toiletries. I'm thinking it'll probably be best to put some stuff in a bag and sit it on the back porch? Seeing him will make me weak and even more emotional... [/QUOTE]
