[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 221116, member: 1436"] I threw my son out for the first time when he was 17. He came home shortly after and toed the line for a while. At 19, we made him leave again. This time he got himself in a lot of trouble. I disconnected emotionally but my husband had a hard time. Allowing him to suffer the consequence of his choices did more good than anything else we did including programs and hospitals and medications and doctors. He is by no means perfect, but who is. But he works everyday, is helpful around the house, treats the family with respect. It was a tough few years, but I know making him leave and allowing him to hit bottom was the most loving thing I could have done for him. [/QUOTE]
