[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 739328, member: 15032"] We also took my son's car away when he was using. We sent him out of state without a car to sober living. After many months sober and taking college classes and working and living with a roommate we gave him his car back. We saw progress. He then relapsed. Went back to treatment. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. We took the car away each and every time. We kept thinking it was the last time. It's a process that parents have to go through. It's a dangerous one, I agree. But how many adults have a few drinks after work and drive home or something similar. Go to a Christmas party etc. It's really not any different in my opinion. We take Uber when we go out and plan to drink but not everyone does and when I was younger I was also irresponsible like many young people. [/QUOTE]
