[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 143688, member: 3626"] Susan, I understand your need to help your son but do try to stay out of it as much as humanly possible. He really does need to prove to you, the ministry, the courts and, most importantly, himself that this is not a game, that he truly means it when he says he is quitting. I do understand why you bailed him out. I don't know if it was the right decision for him or not, but I do understand it was the right decision for you. At this point, all you can do is pray that it works out for him. After you give him the clothes, try to stay away as much as humanly possible unless you are asked to come by the rehab center itself, not your son. They'll know if he's manipulating you or truly needs you. If you go on your on or on his pleas, he may well go back to the manipulations (if he ever left them) so that he can return to his old ways. I know this is hard for you, but you need to stay strong so that your son has a chance at a succeeding. [/QUOTE]
