[QUOTE="scent of cedar, post: 607487, member: 1721"] There are days when I need to hear what Recovering has to say as much as the person she's responded to does. Thank you, Recovering. I agree that if you and your wife can find any kind of support group to attend together, it will help both your marriage and the friction over your son. One of the primary benefits of a support group is hearing strangers describe the things that are happening in their homes because of their addicted kids ~ and realizing their stories are identical to our own. It helps us get it that what has happened to our kids has nothing to do with loving them enough or with giving them enough chances or enough money. Everything that is happening to our kids is happening because their lives revolve around their drugs of choice. If your son's girlfriend is using and your son, though working, is always short of cash, then you are right ~ your son is using, too. As long as they are using, there is nothing we can do for them. Nothing. Cedar [/QUOTE]
