[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 684246, member: 1550"] You cant pick his friends. But if he was serious about quitting he'd get rid of them on his own. As long as they hang with druggies, they will be under pressure to use. That's why my daughter left the state without telling any druggies where she went. Druggies dont hang with non druggies. You will know he is seriously clean, both in clean body and new mindset, when he decides on his own that his drug using friends are not worth it. Sadly, he let you know hes not ready yet. I wouldnt engage him if he is going to abuse you and you may rethink how much of your retirement you want to spend on an abusive man, your son or not, if he is wasting it. If you want it more than he does, it is unlikely to work. I learned that gem from our very wise Child.of Mine. Your son has to want to be clean more than you want him to. We have no control over their will or , in the end, what they do or dont do. in my opinion 23 is too old to live at home, especially on your dime. They don't mature in our homes. They dont mature if we solve all their problems for them. They need to figure it out on their own. Take care of yourself. Big hugs. [/QUOTE]
