[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 523528, member: 1233"] You have a smart sis, and a smart niece! I am glad she listened, and that the school responded so wonderfully!!! that is awesome!! TeDo, you might never have medication refusal. we worked with wiz from the beginning on how and why medications were important, to talk to me about problems with them, feeling funny, etc... and we NEVER had medication refusal. i expected it, but he LIKES the way he feels on his medications so he stays on them. He says he can think on them, and he likes that. He has also avoided drugs and alcohol because we talked openly about the problems of medications and drugs mixing and he didn't want to mess himself up. He still thinks that addicts should be kicked out of towns until they are clean, with no support from anyone until they wise up and want to get clean, that they should have to earn rehab beds. He has no firsthand experience with addiction but hates how people act when high - has been around it of course, and thinks they are stupid and nuts. we have zero clue how we escaped this trap except that we were open with him about this. I also was very careful to be responsive when he said a medication made him feel bad or twitch or feel 'funny'. He has said that it really helped to know that no matter what else was wrong that if he told me his medications were a problem I would call the doctor immediately. [/QUOTE]
