[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 504825, member: 1514"] TL....I have a question and I am probably going to sound mean and I really dont want to come off that way so please dont take it that way...OK? How long are you going to be willing to fund this lifestyle when it seems to my outsiders eye that he really doesnt want to work a program for anything other than a place to live. I really dont think he has stopped smoking either pot or spice. Whichever one he can get his hands on. If he is using spice and it is supposedly out of his system in 48 hours, then he is flat out lying to you. He has been in there well long enough for it to leave his system. Now pot would still be there but if they use the same drug testing systems they use where I get mine done, the cups register in strips right on the cups and then they also send them off to a lab to confirm the test. I can understand your fear....boy can I. I know this might be controversial but considering he doesnt seem to want to follow any program because he seems to have a touch of ODD going on and not believing he has a substance abuse problem, it may be that your money may be better spent setting him up in a really cheap apartment or mobile home somewhere down there where he can get access to some of the resources and then pay for first, last and the deposit and tell him he had better find a job because you are not paying anything else. He may just step up to the plate. Who knows. Just a thought. Like I said, I have no clue with this but it is what we did and it worked. [/QUOTE]
