[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 518740, member: 1550"] Yo got great advice, although my daughter refused to go into treatment and the best we could afford was therapy, in which she conned her therapists into telling us we should trust her more...lol. WTH? She stole, ran away, lied, etc. etc. etc. Unfortunately, the person has to WANT to stop before it will happen. Also, in her case we had to find a long term solution to getting her away from her (cough, cough) friends. They would lput so much pressure on her when she would try to quit that she never could around them. They even threatened her with bodily harm. If you have a relative in another state, that may not be a bad option o nce he is out of treatment. My daughter was on parole twice and it did not phase her. Only her own will to quit finally did it...and a move to Illinois from Wisconsin...where her "friends" could not contact her. I send hugs and all the good luck in the world...I hope your son really takes advantage of this opportunity he is getting. I know how hard it is emotionally for us parents...take good care of yourself. [/QUOTE]
