[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 555969"] Kaim, Oh it is so hard. He is only 17 and so is young and still underage, which means you have the opportunity to be more involved and get more information from treaters. My sense at this point to grab the opportunity and give him the chance to get help. Relapse is not uncommon at all and he does sound at least open to help. Now at some point you may want to cut off help but i would not do it so soon. Some people do respond well to early treatment. My son is not one of those. He is almost 21 and has been in numorous treatment centers and walked out of the last one which was really good. At that point we did step back and he is on the streets breaking my heart. However i think without the treatent he has had he would have been where he is now younger and more vulnerable so i dont regret the help we have given him...and hopefully if and when he goes for help again things he has already learned will kick in TL [/QUOTE]
