[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 288257, member: 1550"] Missy, trust me, it takes time. He seems to be doing GREAT. He may slip up and smoke pot once in a while. My daughter did for a few years once in a blue moon. Maybe, even now, she still does. It's not the end of the world to smoke pot once a month (this is JMO). I am grateful she is no longer a drug addict. My daughter drinks on special holidays, but that's it. I hate when she drinks because I remember her wild days, although she has become very tame and domesticated. I'll say, "J., don't drink and drive!" She'll laugh and say, "Mom, I"m not that stupid kid anymore. One of us won't drink at all." Meaning her SO. He has to earn your trust, but he is acting very much like a kid who has turned the corner. Cool that he's a great drummer! I'm always surprised at how many of our kids who get into drugs are creative. My daughter is fantastic artist and is going to school now for pastry arts. She stands out, has gotten tons of scholarships, and is on the Dean's list. Her cooking is untouchable--she has a real gift. I'll bet a lot of our kids are creatively gifted. Missy, when your son is out, try to watch a movie or take a long, relaxing bubble bath (with candles!) or read a great book. Your son is acting like my daughter did when she'd had enough of being high and drunk 24/7. I don't think he's going to be a hardcore, longterm drug abuser. He's doing great and you're just being a mom :happy:. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
