[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 744223, member: 1550"] Actions speak. Words mean nothing. There is nothing in my opinion great about admitting he used drugs. In fact it confirms what you already knew and is bad behavior and dangerous.Where is the breakthrough? He in my opinion should have been banned from the house for his using. I am not trying to be harsh but the only victory to me seems to be his. He got NO consequences for breaking your rules of no drugs.. Crying and making probably empty promises to me is not a win at all. Big deal if he told you the truth. That means nothing unless he stops doing it. And he wont keep telling the truth. If he does meth that causes psychosis that is very similar to the severe mental illness called schozophrenia. It is very dangerous to his mind. I still maintain he should not be allowed in your house AT ALL until he has been clean and sober for a year and has paid for and done rehab, sober livi g and continues to go to meetings. Talk is cheap. It is verbal vomit. Actions matter. Only actions. Maybe Im too tough but my daughter did quit. At age 20. We have been sober now for twelve years. And we didnt play games with her. We meant what we said. It worked. Does being tough cure all kids? No. But I believe it helps more than a hundred second changes. He will never believe you are serious if you dont get serious. Sending my prayers, good wishes and hope I am wrong and he actually gets clean [/QUOTE]
