[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 731140, member: 21895"] The visit went very well. He had to set 3 goals to meet. One was to come clean with us about his drug use. He had been injecting drugs and had begun to use meth and crack. This was suspected and yet still very hard to hear. His second goal was to talk about his future and that was nice to hear him ponder plans for a future in school and perhaps even university. His third goal was to talk to his HF and explain the lies he had told about us were not true. He did accomplish this. We can not restrict who he sees or talks to and I agree he has to own these decisions for himself. He will be making his own plan of care with the rehab facility. We are stepping back and letting him adult for himself. We feel it is the only way. As much as I would love to block contact with girlfriend and her mother (which I could do as his surety),this would only serve to make her the forbidden fruit. We will have to let their relationship run it’s natural course. We hope he has the strength to move on. We had lunch and then a 6KM hike it was chilly but sunny. It was an amazing and rare opportunity to enjoy time and a family activity with our son. He continues to progress in the program. We have hope. No expectations just hope. [/QUOTE]
