[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 476468, member: 59"] Kathy I'm remembering all the things our counselor told us about relapse. She said when difficult child came home from rehab it was not our duty to follow her around and check up on her. She said that role was our old enabling role. Our addict knows what she has to do to stay sober and it's up to her to do that. I remember asking her how we should act then and she said we should question her about what she was doing but we shouldn't follow her or check up on her. And if we suspected or found that she was not following the program we should trust our instincts and call her on it. She said we needed to have our line drawn in the sand about what we would and would not accept. She said if nothing changes nothing changes. What she meant was if we don't change nothing will. You told her you would pay for the sober house. Let her make those arrangements and tell her to let you know when she is going in so you can pay the rent. Nancy [/QUOTE]
