[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 655544, member: 1550"] Wow. I'm in awe of how you handled that. I know myself and I can usually just go with the flow, even if I am biting my tongue with all my teeth, but at the word "heroin" I think I would have reacted and started babbling about dangerousness and rehab and all that stuff that would have made things worse and had him getting up to turn and walk away. You did exactly what you should have done and had to do and I'm not sure most of us could have been so calm and accepting at that revelation. I really give you huge kudos for doing the only thing you could do for your son...accepting that he is where he is and that you will not help him by lashing out at him...you did that radical acceptance that was so necessary. What a heroes job! [/QUOTE]
