[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 601179, member: 15801"] Just an update....my difficult child is in a holding place until they find a bed for him in some kind of halfway house/residential treatment. Not sure how long he will be there maybe a couple of months. He is not too happy there but admits it is better than jail. I have gone to see him, took him a little money for snacks, laundry and phone calls. I also took him some books and although I think this is enabling I did take him some chewing tobacco (cant have cigs) He has an active role in doing applications for places which I think is good. Me - I am relieved he is safe and not using. I am sorry he is miserable but I am sleeping better at night and dont feel so foused on him which is good. And it feels good to have it out of my hands and not costing us anything. Wherever he ends up he will either make it work or he won't and if he doesnt he will end up in prison. To be honest that no longer worries me.... him being on the streets is much worse for me. *TL [/QUOTE]
