[QUOTE="DDD, post: 322821, member: 35"] Thanks, Janet. Let's wait and see what happens after rehab (if he goes) as it is his choice to apply. He was in outpatient at 14 and then three inpatient at two private and then one Department of Juvenile Justice facility. He has given up the drugs which is something to be thankful for. He is familiar with antabuse and says NO WAY. I think he has 2nd hand experience with the violent side effects. Today, just like when I joined CD almost ten years ago, the easy child/difficult child label is perfect for him. If you met him one day with me you would find it hard to believe the antics you've read about. On another occasion if you went to have a couple of drinks out and he was there you would probably hope that the police would take the obnoxious thuggy looking guy out of there so you could enjoy your down time. Last night, for example, he came home at 2 AM and woke me up to tell me (1) he was sober and (2) he had two guys with him but they would be leaving in about fifteen minutes. "Who are they?" "They are from the local mission and they are hungry." OMG! Just what you want is two hungry strangers from the mission in your house at 2 AM. :anxious: He fixed them plates of leftover TDay food, nuked it in the microwave and took them to his room to eat before they left. Turns out he "knew them" from high school and "they're OK". He would have done that as a easy child or as a drunk difficult child...but if he was drunk he would have asked me to get up and fix the plates. Yikes. I am not a bored old person. That' for sure.
