[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 67673, member: 3626"] Mikey, you have some choices you need to make. You may think the anger is protecting you, but it isn't. It just eats away at you and resolves nothing. So, you can let wife take over McWeedy 100%. Obviously, you have to let wife know this is going to happen. That means you are civil to him but make no decisions whatsoever. He asks to go somewhere, you tell him to ask his mother. He wants something, he asks mom. He's in trouble, she decides what should be done. McWeedy will probably love it. Your wife will hate it but it sounds like the only chance you have to survive this mess is to get your feet out of the doggy doo. You can tell your wife that the police will be called when he is out past curfew, when you think he is doing drugs, whenever you think or know what he is doing is illegal and she's just going to have accept that. There is one reality you need to face. Your son is addicted. Even if he wants to quit, he needs help to do so. He admitted that when he said he was miserable without his drugs. I thought before and I still think your best alternative is to get him into rehab NOW. Even if it doesn't work, you know you'll have tried. You can keep going the way you are. Ultimately, I think it will kill you. You're either going to have a heart attack or stroke out. There's only so much abuse a body can stand before the blood pressure explodes inside. And now I'm going to ask you a favor. Don't do a reply giving me the excuses why you can't do this, that or the other. I'm just giving you your possible options as I see them. What you decide to do with them is up to you. by the way -- Glad to hear Sarge is okay. I was worried about him. [/QUOTE]
