[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 600156, member: 15801"] Kathy - definitely good timing on the therapist visit!! Our kids are so similar.... its amazing really they they are on similar paths. I do feel for you right now as I know that feeling of disappointment, frustration and fear of what will happen next. My guess (based on my gig) is that the next step will be for her to be arrested for something and my current advice is when that happens let the court system do its job!! For me I found the hardest times were when he was on the streets and we had no idea where he was....at that time i didnt find no contact comforting..... it just left me in a state of constant worry. I was definitely ok with times of no contact when I knew he was at least somewhat safe, even if not sober. So as far as contact with her.... do what feels best to you. You absolutely have done all you can.... and it is now up to her. I would not be surprised if it is not long before she decides living on the streets is not what she wants and she wants help coming in from those hard nights with no place to go. Hang in there and take care of you. *TL [/QUOTE]
