[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 662471, member: 18958"] Hi Toughlovin' I feel for you and recognize too there is not one thing you can do that you did not do. This is his to solve. I think your son may feel that he has been there and done that after all of the time he has already done in RTCs. He may have more program under his belt than the staff there. He may believe that now that he is detoxed, working might be a better thing to do while going to AA. That is valid. Most people do quit drinking one day because they decide, without programs of any sort. They become worth stopping. Somebody or something else is worth it. You cannot know, nobody can, what will work because the proof of the pudding is in the eating. For everybody. Every time. I hope the program staff is wise and secure enough to know that and do not try to undermine your son fueled by their own ignorance and insecurity. But that too we do not control. Your son will decide. I know how hard this has been TL and from this observer's vantage point, nobody could have done better. [/QUOTE]
