[QUOTE="sickandtired1, post: 442425, member: 12290"] Hound Dog, I know what you mean and I totally agree with "you do the time". However, initially we discussed (hubby and I) that we would not get a lawyer, but our friend (lawyer) said we should atleast help him here since it could be the difference between 5 or 15 years in jail. While I know my son will do (and should) jail time, if it can be reduced somewhat then maybe he has hopes for a "normal" life someday. Other than that we are not supporting him (no bail, little contact, will leave visits if he acts out, will not accept prison calls, can't live in our house). I hope we are not making a mistake and will be repeating this nightmare again for another crime. Its so hard when it is your child and you know they have some mental/emotional or personality disorder. How do we do it???? I wish there was a book to tell you the right thing to do! [/QUOTE]
