[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 685640, member: 1550"] I am angry at your interventionist. I watch the show intervention. Ok, its a show, but its a reality show. The interventionist on the show NEVER lies. He/she always tells the person exactly where they are going and for how long. I think lying at the beginning is a set up for failure and for hearing...again..."this is YOUR fault." Since it was interventionist's bright idea to lie, and since he should know how to handle addicts, I agree with sending HIM to talk to your son. To me, this was a grave error. People need the truth to make informed decisions and your son had a right to know the truth even if he refused to go. Now its a mess...one you paid for by somebody who is supposed to do what's best and to guide you for the maximum greatest result possible. This is on the interventionist, not you. I have no idea what I'd do in your situation, but you are in my heart tonight. So is your son. I wish I had wise words. [/QUOTE]
