[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 143916, member: 3647"] Lisa, I am so sorry. I had to do a similar thing just a couple days ago, close but not quite the same as your situation. The friend that Tink went to stay at overnight. I am friends with the mom, have been for about 4 years. She is an X heroin addict. Her boyfriend (and father of her 2 younger boys) is also an X heroin addict. Well after dropping Tink off and coming home, the next day I was supposed to go back there and spend the day with my friend while the kids played. I called her up to set up a time and I get the hemming & hawing. Plans have changed because the boyfriend is still getting high and she has to drive him to the city so he can steal merchandise to sell it so he has money to get high. Neither one of them work. They live off the social security that her oldest son collects. He gets that because his father passed away. From what? A heroin overdose. She won't leave this guy. She'd rather enable him. Anyways, when I found out that the guy was still using, I flipped. I told her to bring my child home and be done with it. Now not only have I had to detach, but now Tink has lost a friend because of it. It really stinks. So, you have my empathies and sympathies. And my huggathies too. [/QUOTE]
