[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 721686, member: 15032"] LBL I have been there too. I remember the first time I came on this board and it was said to make him leave. What??? Huh??? He had nowhere to go, no money, no real friends. Nothing. He was young. He was not innocent though. I had to do it after a few years of drugging. Mine would stay sober for many months in between the binges but he still did nothing with his life. It reminds me of the word in a song that reminds me of him "didn't have a life worth living". We hated seeing him like that. I knew a big change was needed but how do we make that happen? You have learned, like many of us, that we have to take a hard stand to start the wheels of change. The wheels of change are very slow but until we take back our home and our peace, they will continue to ramp it up and disrespect themselves, those that love them and our home. You are doing this out of love for your son. Unless someone has been there, they would never understand. We just sent our son away for 13 months after already being gone 1.5 years so he could change. We did this because we love him. We get it. Stay strong. You are doing literally the only thing that you have not yet tried! [/QUOTE]
