[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 143198, member: 3647"] Well Susan, as I read on another thread, it is you guys bailing your son out. On one hand I can't believe what I am reading, and on another hand, I am not surprised. Do [I]you[/I] think, in your heart of hearts, that this is the best thing to do? Because if you don't (and you know your son better than we do), then all the praying in the world is not going to change the inevitable. There is a difference between praying for God's will to happen, and doing what WE want to do and then praying that it works after the fact. Do you have assurance that he will be there for a set amount of time? What is aftercare like? Has it been made [I]crystal clear[/I] to him that under NO circumstances will he be allowed home, even after rehab? Understand this, he may get through rehab with flying colors. But the second he gets a taste of freedom, he may revert back to his old ways. You do not need that in your home. Is this a done deal? I mean, has the money been paid yet? Or can you guys back out at any time? I would think this through. As my sponsor always tells me, play the tape through all the way to the end. [/QUOTE]
