[QUOTE="kt4394, post: 685744, member: 20273"] Hi All, this board has been a godsend for me. It is so cathartic to be able to spill it all out without judgement and to get back guidance and understanding. Thanks. So - husband went to see son in hospital today. I didn't go. Son told him that he owes someone $200 for weed and he says he hid the weed somewhere and that's why he was selling the coedine to pay off his debt. Son is spinning this whole tale and told the counselors where he is the same thing. One part of me just wants to take him out and pay off his, but then the other stronger, more reasonable side is telling me NO. Although I don't 100 percent believe he needs to be in psychiatric ward, I don't want him out. What he needs is a drug rehab. He told husband he has no intention of stopping smoking pot, even if that means failing drug tests with his probation officer and being taken away from us and placed in state custody. How can my 15 year old baby be so addicted to pot and whatever else that he would rather go away than get help? How did it get to this point? I feel so helpless, so lost, so conflicted. I can't stop crying. I did, however, go to my first Al Anon meeting tonight. I only listened, but it was sort of helpful. I will go back next week. [/QUOTE]
