[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 713194, member: 1550"] Bluebell, people here have grown kids who are in or have been in rehab. If its our idea and they dont want to do the hard work, then they wont. A personal example: we adopted a wonderful son whose birthmother is a drug addict and this son was her fifth drug exposed child. The court system sent her to rehab elevin times. My son still had crack in his system at birth after 11 times and she was high while giving birth. Rehab, especially thr first stint, only helps those who really want to quit. Period. Your son is clearly not acting as if he is even feeling resposible for his bad behavior. If you had had the power to make him go to rehab, most likely he would have not complied, relapsed, and blamed you. Thats why the person himself has to reach out. Without the desire from them, its hard...they will only do it if they want to. Dobt feel bad. He can go if he wants to. [/QUOTE]
