[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 639315, member: 18366"] My opinion is that you need to do whatever is necessary to keep her from getting her hands on Connor. Once she resumes her contact with him, she also resumes an avenue to manipulate you. I think you are headed in the right direction. You daughter, unfortunately is an addict and even if this is a so-called slip, she needs a huge wake up call, which is called hitting bottom. I think you have to be tougher in this situation than others might be [I]because [/I]there is this innocent child involved and chances can't be given when we are talking about the effects of her behavior effecting his safety and well being. Before this slip, you were posting how you did not agree with some of the things which you felt were unsafe for Connor so now it is your chance to step up and really be the only chance for a safe and secure life for him at this point in time. I think her having to work her life out so that she has to earn the chance to show she is responsible enough to handle true mothering is the best shot you have of her trying to get and stay sober. Only AFTER she proves this over time should she resume being the caregiver for her son. [/QUOTE]
