[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 738004, member: 355"] Oh my, JustWantPeace. What a rough few days. I am really feeling for you. The first time you have to remove your child from the house is the hardest and I don't think it really gets easy. The posts by Wish have resonated with me, as it makes me go back in time to when we were dealing with our daughter. She was around the same age as your son. She had spent most of her life running away from home but then at around 19 decided that lazing around the house drinking/doing drugs and stay up all night/sleep all day was the way to go. Later on she begged to come back but refused to agree to contract terms and we held our ground. She never did come back to live. She also tried to enter the military and when that failed, worked the carnival circuit for a couple of months until she got fired. They have to figure these things out for themselves - mine hasn't yet. I believe that if we had allowed her back, she would still be with us. Funny, she is now wanting to come back and we are struggling to say no. Hugs to you and your family. Take time to heal yourselves. [/QUOTE]
