[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 688472, member: 18958"] Hi Wendy I am sorry you are going through this but I am glad you are here. First, let me cut to the chase: the charges are a good thing. It may have saved him that he has to enter the judicial system. He may get mental health treatment but most of all there will be some accountability. I would not let him run amok as long as he is in my home. I would keep the reins tight. Soon you will have help in the form of a probation officer. If you cannot control him I would tell him to leave. But I would not let him stay in my home out of control. You will get help here in how to do it, and support to do so. There is an article on detaching on the website. It is slow on a Sunday night. Tomorrow morning about 9 am eastern time things should have picked up. Most of this I went through: Plus anxiety, depression, hostility, and absolute refusing to listen to anybody, especially me. My son is now 27. He is better. Getting better. But it took a lot of learning from me and detaching, which you will learn about here. My son was living with us for 4 months after nearly 4 and a half years away. He would not conform about the marijuana so I had to throw him out. I hate the marijuana. To me he is addicted, spends all of his money on it, it makes him depressed, low energy. I cannot stand it. I think your son right now, if he has any sense at all, is probably anxious and scared about what will happen. But that does not give him free rein to go wild. I hope you keep posting. I suggest that every single time he busts a wall or a door to call 911. If you feel threatened in any way call 911. If you are afraid, and you feel he might hurt you (or has) there are legal means to keep him away from you or your house. Take care. [/QUOTE]
