[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 628536, member: 15796"] I couldn't agree more with the others here. We want them to be well so badly that we are desperate to grasp on to anything. I once had a friend offer to take my daughter in and give her a landscaping job. I grasped at it thinking that would be what set her straight. Nope, she ended up using drugs in her house, cussing my friend out like a dog, getting thrown out and stole from her. I regretted it very badly and felt awful for my friend that was trying to help her and she DID know my daughter's history. HE is the only one that can change. HE has to be so miserable that he wants that change. My brother, who has been clean many years told me once - every time you save her, you push her rock bottom down a bit more. He was right. The only one you can control is YOU. Take care of you so [I]you[/I] are well when he finally decides he is ready for something different... [/QUOTE]
