[QUOTE="standswithcourage, post: 184184, member: 3948"] I guess what I mean by understanding now is that since I have been going to counseling I understand how frustrated everyone felt with me. First - my son went to jail for contributing to the deliquency of a minor back in Oct. 2007 - I thought I had already said that Second - he sat in there until March when we thought (since the ministry man had been going to see him) that maybe he was ready for rehab - so that is when we bailed him out - the ministry man took him to a rehab (Christian) about 20 miles away from us and helped him get in - my son did not stay - he caught a bus back to Greenville - we a llowed himi to come home (Mistake) we hung in with him for about 2 weeks and he continued on the same path so we called the bondsman - told him where he was and had his bond revoked. Third - when he got out of jail - he was in columbia, SC - July - he called wanting us to come get him - we said no - he caught a bus back to Greenville - we went to get him downtown - he came home - we had a talk he needed treatment - he couldnt stay here especially when no one would be here once school started - we gave him almost a month to find a job and get himself together and he didnt - when we had our floors refinished we had to go to a motel for a week - he couldnt go - didnt want to - so he hooked up with a long lost friend and lives in the slums in a trailer with him so he can smoke pot and whatever else - his friend has never been to jail - he has a job as a telemarketer and hopes to hellp my son find one - it is a weird story of how we have tried to hellp our son - this other kids dad always kicked him out - i thought it was pititful but anyway - I guess I should have posted something different - I am just kinda stressed - sometimes I dont say what I mean and it may sound crazy but I do listen to what you say - I wouldnt keep coming back if I didnt - just bare with me - does that answer any questions? The counselor told me and my husband to make sure my son knew we loved him, he could come and eat with us, we are not giving him money, he needs treatment and when he gets treatment we will entertain the thought of him coming home - she is an addicitonolgist. I am trying. [/QUOTE]
