[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 730931, member: 1967"] Have you asked the therapists about an aftercare plan? I don't know how old your son is but in my daughter's case it was recommended that she definitely did not come home after she was released. In many cases, that is stepping backward instead of moving forward. Not to mention the chaos you would be bringing back into your home if he relapses. Most of the time the recommendation is a sober living house where there would be continued supervision with a goal of independent living with adult responsibilities. Even though my daughter is 32 now and has been sober for two years and is totally independent, I find both of us slipping back into old unhealthy roles when we spend long period of time together. It is so easy to fall back into the old family dynamic. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
