[QUOTE="hearthope, post: 66288, member: 2389"] RM ~ One thing I know for sure - We could never go back to the way it was before. CJ ~ Yes, I sadly have lived thru many broken promises ~ Thank goodness I learned to run here with my questions. Heather ~ I agree, he has to prove it! BBK ~ Thank you for sharing part of your life. It means alot! He lost the right to ever live here again. I told him the last time was it ~ I have to stand by my word Suz ~ AGREE ~ Show me, don't tell me Dammit ~ I had to cut the raising his voice calls off. It was hard enough listening to the message to accept the collect call knowing it was my son in jail Pony ~ Gosh I needed to hear that! thank you for sharing. I keep the hope and try my best to stay detached. Karen ~ I agree, he needs to prove himself. I need to be careful and not let myself get sucked in. Mutt ~ I have those same doubts of him being able to stay away from the 'ole difficult child buddies Witz ~ If I understand it right, part of his sentence can be done at Canaan Land, so he would need to contact and get on the list so the judge will see it. Ant's mom ~ Maybe being locked up is the only time they are still and quiet enough to hear God. DDD ~ I am trying to find that fine line between emotional support and detaching... Barbara ~ You don't sound preachy ~ you sound sincere and honest The hardest thing of all ~ (you summed it up!) "Our role as parents of addicted kids is to not give in to that wish to make things easier for them" It is our first reaction and we have to teach our selves to rethink what our reactions to them are, while all along remembering to continue to react to the other's in our lives as we should. I am so thankful to have you all to turn to! There is not a soul in my life I would turn to for advice other than you all. I can be honest here and say my son is in jail. That is something I have yet to do outside of here.... Traci [/QUOTE]
