[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 727155, member: 18958"] Hi tired mama. You know my own son is doing better in that he is in a sober living. We threw him out. And before that pushed hard that he get into treatment. He was kind of up against a wall. But nonetheless, I am not minimizing that he is choosing to do this nor am I minimizing how hard it is. The thing I want to comment upon is this: he seems to need distance from me. In other words--my wanting for him seems counter-productive to him. He seems to need me removed to get clarity and feel the volition himself. He seems to need to feel this is him--not me pushing him. Which makes sense. [/QUOTE]
