[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 695311, member: 20054"] Albie, I'm thinking of you/your situation today and this: I feel exactly the same with our son, he can look people in the eye, hold the door open for a lady, use please and thank you. At times when friends who have kids our sons age tell their life stories, ie. they graduated college, transferred to a better job, married in Jamaica etc....and I think...my son has manners? That's all you got??? Once, when Difficult Child got fired (bought and chewed a couple of vicodin on the job) he waited in parking lot for owner/partner to come through. We expected trouble but man said he just looked him in the eye, shook his hand and said "I just wanted to thank you for the experience here". Such a paradox, no wonder I can't process it. I try not to forget he's still a decent human being under the substance cloud. I love the guy inside the addict. My hope of hopes is that both of our sons someday come out of hiding. Prayers.
