[QUOTE="BloodiedButUnbowed, post: 726662, member: 13303"] I am seething just reading about CopMom. We should come up with a funny nickname for her. Maybe it would help channel some of the anger. Some of what you are going through mirrors my wife's struggle with her ex-husband's enabling of YS and DS. She often feels that she has no choice but to capitulate to her ex-husband, just to maintain the sliver of relationship she still has with YS. Ex-husband harms the boys just like CopMom is harming your son. And my wife cannot do anything about it anymore than you can. We cannot fix, manage or control the actions of other adults - we both know this but it bears repeating sometimes. I hope it is comforting to remember that regardless of what CopMom does, your son WILL grow up. He is a legal adult but still very young and lost in his addiction. There are many years yet to come for him. I hope he - and you - are lucky enough for one stint in rehab to turn him around. Many hugs [/QUOTE]
