[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 675357, member: 19522"] That is the hard part, once someone has a substance abuse problem, and deals, then they are fast tracked into a world of [I]making lots of money,[/I] as well as having a supply for themselves. I am glad that you have more options for your boy, but what is key, is if [I]he is willing [/I]to go the route. My hubs got his GED through Job Corps. They supervise the students through counseling, teaching a trade, and housing them. They were let out of the facility on weekends, for a time. But, it takes the kids wanting to succeed. They have a strict compliance policy. A lot will depend, on [I]what your son chooses[/I]. This may be a window of opportunity, perhaps you can talk with him about the options you are looking at. Try to find out what he is interested in. It is crucial, however, for him to get clean. My heart goes out to you D C, this is a tough road, for sure. You are not alone. (((HUGS))) leafy [/QUOTE]
