[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 454405, member: 1550"] I don't, but had experience with a drug abusing/alcohol abusing child (who is now clean). From her, I got the words of wisdome: "Nobody will ever quit until the person wants to." If your son truly is motivated to quit, he could get good results, but if he's not ready it won't work, especially if he still hangs around with his drinking buddies. I hope it's his time to quit and that he really wants to do it! If he wants to quit, Outpatient should be good enough. When my daughter was ready she didn't tell anybody...she just did it...no rehab, no therapy, nothing. Just determination (she even quit cigarettes). She was nineteen when she quit (she had used since twelve). She is now twenty-seven and still clean. I think AA is another really good program, although she never went to AA or NA. Hugs and keep us posted! [/QUOTE]
