[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 55721, member: 3626"] I'm sorry. I can only imagine the pain and the sense of betrayal you are feeling. Give yourself a break. We all want to believe our children are doing good no matter what the evidence. The evidence you had was pretty positive. Most addicts are very good at fooling the world for short periods of time, even their parents. She wasn't living with you. You only saw her for short period of times. She could pretty much control herself for those periods. You're now raising her son, trying to plan a wedding, look for a job and still live a life. That's a pretty full plate without adding the work of determining whether your child has relapsed when she appears clean and playing the game so well. So, be angy at her, not at yourself. At this point, I suppose your rule has to be something like no alone time for her with her son until she has been clean and sober for a minimum of X months with weekly and random test results proving this or something to that effect.
