[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 633961, member: 2287"] Thanks, everyone. My ex is the enabler. Now that I'm remarried, I'm doing better letting him go. He is who he is and I can't seem to change him. I would leave him in jail overnight, but ex runs to his rescue to the tune of $617 THIS time. It's been $300 + before and that doesn't even mention about $100 + every probation meeting. Oh yea, then there's the attorney who doesn't seem to do a thing (sometimes doesn't even show up). And then there's the drug/alcohol rehab stuff that costs $3,000. Ex had insurance for most of it. difficult child continues the drug and alcohol. My heart breaks every night because I wonder where he is and what he's doing. Wish I could shake it...I'm sure I would sleep better. My son has no consequences at home, he just keeps doing what he does. He did start a job this week and is working 10 hour days, maybe that will curtail some of the nightly behavior. He has a history of staying up all night and then sleeping all day. BARELY got him through high school for this reason, among others. We, like most of you, started treatment when he was 4 years old..with years and years of medications (he won't take them now), and therapy upon therapy, and IEP after IEP, and school meetings after school meetings. Feels like not one bit of it helped. [/QUOTE]
