[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 452631, member: 1550"] Agree with the others. You can't help him any more if he doesn't truly WANT to quit using drugs. Stealing is just a part of drug using. They usually can't keep a job so they steal, even from beloved family members, to support their drug habit. Been there/done that with my daughter. We do them no favors sheltering and babying them while they refuse help and continue to abuse us. It doesn't help them...and it can destroy our own lives. Your son had enough money to pay for a place to stay, but he probably used the stolen money on drugs. You can't stop that. Only he can. Addiction is a journey on must take alone. I agree with going to Al-Anon or Narc-Anon for yourself. You deserve a support system. Hugs and let us know how it goes. [/QUOTE]
