[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 720244, member: 18516"] Copa, one thing I have learned is what our difficult children tell us happened isn't always the truth of what really happened. I have lost count of how many times my son called me complaining that he was robbed at gunpoint or with a knife or beaten. His stories never held water for long. Usually what happened is he was too high and either forgot his stuff somewhere or someone stole it because he was so out of it. I think our difficult kids will sometimes add the drama of a gun or knife because they know it will play on our emotions. Your son knows you well and he knows how to pull your heart strings. I know how much you love your son and are concerned about him taking his medications but you cannot babysit him through it. He will either take his health seriously or he won't. You have let him come home and have helped him out so many times. Each time he has always told you what you wanted to hear. He would be on his best behavior for a while then things would fall apart again. I know you have to do what you can live with but I really hate to see you let him come home only to have things end up the same. I'm so sorry you are cycling through this again. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
