[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 723872, member: 1550"] I have never done it, but I would probably try to keep him busy with wholesome activities like a large choice of books and magazines, a notebook for journaling (yes, he may laugh at the idea, but you never know if he will get bored enough to try it), your choice of television stations, and keep him busy with chores if he complaines he is bored. He isnt going to be there to have fun. It is this or jail. Maybe he would even appreciate crossword puzzles. He is going to have to learn new ways to amuse himself. Drugs and the thrill of getting them needs to replaced by new interests and hobbies. It cant hurt to offer him ideas. Maybe he likes music? Guitar? Giutar lessons? Anything he used to like but dropped for drugs. Other than that, I think cracking the whip on his behavior is good practice for his hopefully joining society in a healthy way Hope this wasnt useless. I wish you well. [/QUOTE]
