[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 86069, member: 1545"] I too would mention it to his program director .. or social worker. I've never been an addict ... so I don't know how long it takes to 'lose the urge'. I don't know what context the comment was said in. There's a big difference between "I have the urge to smoke every day and can't wait until I get out of here so I can get high" and I have the urge to smoke every day and I'm struggling to overcome it". You are correct in recognizing that you can't handle "his urge". All you can do is decide well in advance of his homecoming what you CAN handle. The rest is up to him. [/QUOTE]
