[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 409215"] Oh Nancy, I so wish you lived near me!!! We have a wonderful parents group. They do stick to a 12 step format and try to keep the focus on us rather than the "qualifier" but most people when sharing do tie it to their child and share a little about that....I have found it very comforting to find other people who understand about the addiction, about the middle night phone calls, about jail and in general what it is like to have a drug/alcohol dependent child. I would say the meeting are about 20 people or so... different ages, different age kids. Some are newer to this like us, some have been dealing with this for years and years. The focus is not the kids but rather our reactions.... I so wish you could find a group like this. Hmmmm I wonder how you go about starting a parents meeting because i think there is a huge need for parents.... and I do think the situation for a parent is slightly different than other family members.
