[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 657067, member: 1967"] lovemyson1, I am going to take all religion out of my post and just talk about your son leaving rehab. My daughter always did well when she was in an inpatient program, too. They are surrounded by people who support their sobriety and they are constantly supervised and attend daily meetings. Not to mention that they know that they can be drug tested at any time. The real test is when the addict/substance abuser leaves that level of support. It would be impossible for you to monitor him 24/7. That is when my daughter always relapsed. Your son is in [U]very[/U] early recovery and even if he (and you) believe that he has permanently changed he may find it is much harder to be strong when he leaves inpatient treatment . . . especially if he returns to the same environment where he was using before. Just my two cents. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
