[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 42855, member: 1550"] I don't know if *I* made any difference in my drug-addicted daughter's life, but I did make her leave at 18, when she wouldn't get help. She turned her life completely around and will be 23 in July. She has been drug free for three years now. She's getting her own place with her boyfriend (a really nice young man) and told me, "If Tom (my hub) still smokes, he can't do it in our place. I'm sick of smoke." (My hub quit smoking, but THAT was a riot coming from her!). Yes, she even quit her cigarettes. I think the morals and values we teach CAN make a difference if the young adult decides to listen to them, BUT they have to be willing to help themselves and THAT is not within our control. I don't blame any parent here if a child won't get help. The law states that at 18 we lose any rights we had over our kids. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
