[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 480675"] Thanks for all your thoughts on this I find it very helpful, and also validating! I am trying not to totally obsess abuot him but to go about my business... I am doing ok in that department although I have gotten into my drug of choice, which is chocolate.... which is not good for my weight loss efforts!!! So far I have heard nothing.. which I guess is good news. I am checking phone records (and trying not to obsess). He has made a call to the outpatient program down there... don't know what that means. I am hoping he is on his way back but we shall see.... I think I will hear something from someone hopefully if he gets there. If not I may not know if he is here or there. As far as giving money to the sober house for food, the one he was just in is willing to do that for us. However I don't know if they will be willing to take him back after his recent shenanigans down there and then him leaving them hanging looking for him at the iarport the other night. So now sure if he goes back where he will go. As for the bus... yes if he takes the bus it would be a 24 hr bus ride, so I would probably pack him some food and give him a pack of cigs... no money though. We did realize he has some frequent flyer miles he does not know about so we would tell him about those and if he is able to use them then so be it. As for the lawyer i think it would make me feel better to consult with a lawyer. I suspect if my son gets arrested again the lawyer is going to also be pretty disgusted with him. LOL. And I really doubt there will be much anyone can do... so for his sake I hope that doesn't happen, although a part of me feels it would serve him right. I am still mostly just mad at him and disgusted. One thing that bothered me was his attitude yesterday on the way to the airport. We had just picked him up and he was cocky.... probably from the time with the girlfriend... and I think his cockiness made him honest and I did not like what I heard. His attitude about his drug use and manipulating everyone, admitting to it when it served him etc. just appalled me. It made me realize that I really don't know him anymore and what I do know I don't like. It breaks me heart that my little boy became this man... I really loved the little boy but I am having a hard time liking this man. Anyway mad is better than sad..... and I am starting to get sad so I am going to stop and just be mad. TL [/QUOTE]
