[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 663303, member: 16024"] ASIG-- Minimizing, justifying, self-blaming, looking the other way. We've all been there, done that. We can relate. Oh, the embarrassment I have when I think back on our reactions to some of the things our Difficult Child did. Our Difficult Child was on the K-2 (spice) for a long while before I even knew what it was. I thought all those packets were incense! Hubby knew but didn't inform me for quite a while. Point is, your son has to assume the consequences of his behavior and not try putting it off onto you. If that means the loss of his job, and his freedom, so be it. It is entirely his own fault. Do not fall prey to your guilty feelings. They are not rational, but they are destructive, and could keep you from being strong enough to do the right thing. Keep posting. We are here for you.
