[QUOTE="pasajes4, post: 546474, member: 12856"] I currently have one of these kids and I also have one that used to be a druggie and a huge difficult child now easy child. I never stopped caring about him or the one I have. I am not trying to be harsh. I know first hand how hard and heart breaking it is to see our kids go through this. I was thrilled when mine got jail time and at the same time it hurt like hell. I also learned first hand after my oldest son became clean, sober and responsible how my emotional investment which drove how i responded to him actually was as enabling as handing him money or bailing him out. I used to hawk him after he moved out and was legally an "adult" it only hurt me more and changed nothing. The day I stopped and started taking care of me was the day that things started changing with him. he did not have my emotional garbage to fuel his need to do whatever (read drug use among other things) to escape his perceived notion that I wanted to run his life.
