[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 701801, member: 15032"] And it all falls down. So sorry to hear this latest development. Since he is a minor I guess you'll have to let him come home and see how he does. If he is remorseful and really wants to change then maybe it can work. It's always scary because it seems they have the control over everything (they don't know it; as you wait to see what they'll do) and that is not a good way to live. I think if it were me and his age I'd try it. You need to have firm rules and boundaries and your husband and you need to be on the same page. I think for us, that is my biggest regret. Made things harder in the long run for all of us. Trust takes a very long time and you are probably years away from that. I don't know if I will ever trust our son again. I only hope that someday I will but I don't even worry about that right now. My son was good until he wasn't. Is him going to the ranch now even an option? What is the cost involved to the family? Good luck with your decision and keep posting. [/QUOTE]
