[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 663117, member: 18958"] I am in. In my State the prison system used to have this title. Depending upon how punitive the populace is perceived the commitment shifts from rehabilitation or not. Cedar, I read the article, the 7 tips, and I agree. But I have a question. The drugs past a point alter the brain as to affect decision-making. To expect our children to make better choices, is itself a cruelty, because they are making such with disordered brains. What is a parent to do? This is the exactly the situation I am in with respect to my son's health. His disordered brain is making bad choices. Short of constant supervision (which he will not allow) I do not know what to do. Which is to say I am absolutely powerlessness in an impossible situation. I mean, it is already bad. Now after this quite lovely article it just got worse. [/QUOTE]
