[QUOTE="country, post: 701985, member: 20890"] I completely agree with all the comments, thanks everyone. And RN0441, your line about your son being “good until he wasn’t” is SO TRUE. Ours has had periods of great success but never can sustain it for long. It is that that has probably turned me into the World’s Biggest Enabler. Going to the ranch is an option (and free to us if his school sends him) but his school and the probation officer feels like he deserves a chance at home first. Honestly, he has some ODD behaviors but has been a pretty earnest kid up until the last 6 months. The kind of kid who has 2 left feet and just keeps tripping no matter how hard he tries. My prayer is that he can keep the addiction monster away – he has a shot if he can do that. That being said, and I have told him, the ranch is always going to be an option going forward. He is coming home but his future is determined by his choices and if he messes up, he’s gone. This community is the only place where I feel understood, thank you all. [/QUOTE]
