[QUOTE="bymi22, post: 566873, member: 15625"] busywend, we haven't talked "line in the sand" have only tried to give him encouragement and another way ahead besides living on the streets and self destructive behavior. He said he needed to leave facility and the Doctor recommended narcanon treatment; he did that, graduated and went to Sober Living...got caught using and was kicked out. Back to narcanon for retraining, graduated and is now working as an intern...still not sure if he will complete program and stay on. We had him going to a therapist, but he only saw him a couple times before going back into narcanon treatment. Faculty at narcanon say he is good for the people there and has not shown signs to them that he needs to be in higher level treament. Seems that as long as he is sober he is fine...other than his change in future plans...art and music ...and yes we gave him music lessons from the time he was 6...he plays violin, viola, and piano...but he never wanted to make that a career. we are really looking for some good advice about how we should proceed...let him move back home, pay for another program, give no more financial support?
