[QUOTE="Woriedmom, post: 629272, member: 18061"] Oh my goodness... I didn't mean in anyway to offend anyone, I only placed a very short paragraph of where [B]I [/B]find my main source of comfort in all that I'm going through. As midwestmom says ...it all boils down to the same thing..."letting go", none of us has the ability to control these drug addicts...doesn't matter if they're our children even though that makes it the toughest part of all, for me anyway . Sig, I thank you very much for those articles...I've read several of them, I can relate to them. GN, I did not think you were harsh, I do appreciate you caring about my feelings. Basically, it doesn't make any difference what religion or belief a person has if any at all. Drugs can take over any persons life. No one is immune to it, it's like blood...regardless of race it all runs red. I'm new in all this, finally came to realization that I do have a co-dependency problem. Only when a person recognize they have a problem can they begin to fix it, I like comfort in knowing that there is no damage that can't be repaired....there will be scars of course, but only once it is healed. If we can move past that ...I do need some advice, I'm till trying to separate my controlling husband from my son ( his step-son...so he reminds me all the time). Um...should be concerned that because my husband never gave him any real love that this would have anything to do with my son choosing his lifestyle. Just so everyone knows...I married my husband in 2009 , my son was already almost 17 yrs. old so. My husband has never shown him any real love, only rules. says he showed my son love by allowing him to live with us despite him getting caught with weed and giving him warnings. Although there are books out here to help with our drug addict children...I mean adults, I can't find any that discuss when your kid doesn't get love from a parent...and in my opinion every boy needs a father. I know I'm dealing with 2 separate issues here...one being my husband and my 20 yr. pot smoking son, is it even possible to keep these 2 problems separate? [/QUOTE]
