[QUOTE="Suz, post: 6771, member: 29"] Until you have some trust and until your difficult child earns it, I would strongly recommend that any socializing he does with his "friends" be done at your home, and/or in your presence. Do an activity together. Go out for dinner, go to a movie...together, with the friend(s). Give him every opportunity to pass muster and be successful...and as little opportunity as possible for temptation. And don't let him come home at all unless he agrees ahead of time to the terms. And take him back immediately, even if it's early, if he breaks them. I know it's hard. The holidays make it even more heartbreaking. Let him feel the pain of your loss. It's ok for him to feel this and it will do him a world of good to feel what his therapy is trying to teach/point out to him. Suz [/QUOTE]
