[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 517182, member: 1967"] I think you did the right thing. I kept explaining away my difficult child's behavior as normal teenage rebellion and "depression." She is now 26 and has been drinking and abusing prescription pills for the last 10 years. It doesn't get better on its own. by the way, my difficult child was never in trouble in school and completed dual enrollment her senior year and graduated from high school with a year of college credits. Unfortunately, she never finished college because she got more and more heavily into substance abuse after she graduated from high school. I wish now that we had taken action at your son's age. I often wonder if we could have avoided the horror of the last 10 years. Welcome to the CD board. You will find a lot of help and support here. I know I wouldn't have made it through the bad times without this wonderful group of people Keep posting and letting us know how your son is doing. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
