[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 620104, member: 3305"] Tymica, I am so sorry. Sounds like one very rough day in the life of a teenage addict and his mother! Unfortunately, because he is 16...You're not done. Now I say this while also wanting to emphasise the fact that your son most certainly deserves the consequences he gets. However my hope is that son will also get drug rehab at some point soon...he will hopefully learn new ways to cope with life without drugs! We can't shelter them enough can we! I did look at your other thread and saw how hard you were trying to be on top of everything. These drug addict kids of ours are pretty sneaky. And well, where there's a will... I hope your son will begin to see that painful experiences are NOT WORTH IT. Seems the only way our drug addict children really learn. I don't know why. That's just the way it goes for most of them. If you have not started going to Al Anon I think you might want to look into it now. There is great in real life support from others that have gone through similar experiences, made different choices, and are surviving...even enjoying life. Hugs for your angry weary heart today. Boy, we sure do understand. LMS [/QUOTE]
