[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 293810, member: 1550"] Missy, I'll bet all my meager funds that your son is an alcoholic. It goes with the territory. I would NEVER buy him a drink or let him drink at home. Obviously you can't stop it outside of the home, but you may want to start discussing that "A" word because some kids stop the drugs then think it's ok to drink, even though they are just one of those people who can't only have one drink--they drink one drink and they can NOT stop until they are drunk. Maybe girlfriend is also an alcoholic...she sounds VERY disrespectful to me. I wouldn't ever let her stay in my house. Let difficult child put her up. As for "old friend," I wouldn't trust his "take" on why difficult child did what he did. He's a drug user. According to my daughter, the ex-drug abuser, "If they move their lips, they're lying." I wouldn't even bother asking him for input. Good luck with the tough love. Sadly, it sounds like he needs to know he has to shape up or ship out. And he will whine and pout. Expect it. Don't let him change your mind or he'll mainpulate you forever and a day. [/QUOTE]
