[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 73326, member: 1545"] I would be concerned especially about stopping the lithium cold turkey. Hubby takes lithium and when he misses just one dose, he knows it. Can you contact his case worker and express your concern?? I wouldn't worry about the smoking (assuming it was just a cigarette) It's the least of his worries. Well ... it's up to your son now to make his way. I don't know your whole story ... but I do understand how hard it is to worry about our kids. How old are your daughter's children? I have a brother in law who has been in and out of prison for years. We met as a family and talked about what to tell the kids (Ours is a huge family). We decided to tell the older kids (approximately 10 years and up) the truth about this guy. For the younger ones, we decided it was best not to tell them the whole truth. We told them that "Uncle is in some trouble". Children should never be given information beyond what they are capable of processing. I don't think small children could (or should have to) comprehend drugs, illegal activities and prison. But, that was our position. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
