[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 515926, member: 59"] AG I don't ever think it's not helpful to give support when they are in rehab (how do you like that for a double negative). I mean I feel that when they are in rehab it's important for them to know that we are supportive. And so I would do whatever I could to give encouragement and let difficult child know that when he is seeking recovery and doing the right thing that you are behind him. What I didn't take into account is that he is a guy and and guys may not like pictures plastered on their wall lol. So that part of my answer is probably not helpful. But a letter from you telling him how proud you are of him and encouraging him to continue in recovery is, I think, a good thing. Asking his therapist or counselor their opinion is probably best because he has the experience. But whatever you decide, you are a great mom and some day hopefully our difficult child's will realize what we have done for them and that there is no other person on earth that wants them to succeed more than we do.
