[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 741949, member: 23371"] My son is a weed addict also. Same story. Mine's 27 now. Hasn't changed. I try to live by the AA theory...God grant me... At 27 I'm trying to accept. My son historically has held down a job for a year or more at a time. He's not violent or committing crimes. He's kind to people and animals. He's lived on the sofa of one of two older women since I kicked him out at 19. I look around and see many, many older adult males who have gone down this road. And I mean men in their 60s and 70s. They haven't lived up to their potential. But some have long term marriages and children. Those have rental homes and jobs with periods of unemployment. I will never allow it in my house so we agree that he will never live with me again. There is this huge, basic disagreement between us. But we have a relationship. We speak about once a week which usually ends in a disagreement for other reasons. I accept that this may be the best it will ever be. I am still working on accepting that this is all his life will ever be. But that's about my hopes and dreams for him, not his. [/QUOTE]
