[QUOTE="Rina, post: 656987, member: 18848"] I would like to support what many people here have said and encourage you not to bring him home. I've seen many addiction specialists, and they all recommend at least one year stay at a rehab program. Addicts use drugs to deal with stressors. Because of their drug use, they haven't developed the emotional skills necessary to cope. Their emotional development stopped. I don't think that one can make up for all that in 77 days. It may be appropriate to transfer your son to a different program, but I would like to encourage you to support him in continuing treatment. Whatever you choose, I hope the outcome will be good. Take care. [/QUOTE]
