[QUOTE="cubsgirl, post: 568290, member: 11211"] Kathy, I read this forum daily wondering if I can offer help. I hesitate to put this out there but I am a recovering heroin addict (9 years clean - thank God). I think the best thing you can do is have your family Christmas without difficult child. She needs to realize that there are consequenes for her addiction. She needs to stay in detox and aftercare. I didn't get clean until my family made it clear that they could survive without me and I lost all contact with close friends that I used to have. Today I have a good life and it is entirely due to several family members and our local pastor practicing "tough love" on me. That and AA/NA meetings have helped me get a new set of recovery-minded friends that help me almost daily. I pray that your difficult child gets the same. [/QUOTE]
