[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 700102, member: 17720"] Ugh, what a mess. I do have regrets that we didn't come down harder when my son was still a minor. I don't know if it would have made a difference, but I do still wonder. Is there any way to break the cycle somehow? Maybe some combination of living with your dad or another relative, a new school, drug testing, etc.? I agree with the others, I would say no phone, no door on his bedroom, no spending money, etc. until he tests clean and stays clean. Maybe his counselor will have some ideas for income-based treatment or other options? I know just what you mean when you say your son is in there. It breaks my heart. My son has been at this for over 10 years now, and it gets harder and harder to see "him" in there anymore. [/QUOTE]
