[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 583713, member: 59"] AG I'm sorry I didn't see your post, we were posting at the same time. I'm sure your heart sank when you found the vodka bottle, my heart sank for you. I still remember the sinking feeling I got evrytime I found evidence that my difficult child had relapsed. I agree that it is much easier when they are not in your home, you can be concerned from afar and it's so much easier to detach. I had to examine my conscience when my difficult child was under 21 and decide if I was more upset that she was drinking underage because of the legal ramifications or was I more upset that she was drinking at all. It was a difficut conversation I had with myself. Once she turned 21 the legal consequences were gone except for a possible DUI of course. Her drug use was far more worrisome to me. We can't keep our difficult children sober. It's good you took the car. My only concern is that you become a prisoner in your home. You can't watch him every moment and if he wants to find a way out he will. [/QUOTE]
