[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 715609, member: 355"] Just got a chance to catch up on some threads - sorry to hear of the latest issues with your son. I think that each of our children have a different "rock bottom". I also believe that each of us have a different "detachment". It's often hard to get to the place we need to be but more so when we are parents. It's in our destiny to see that our children do better than us, just as our parents wished for us. Don't be angry with yourself. You tried to do what you thought was right. Often we have to make mistakes so that we learn how NOT to make them again. Sometimes that lesson takes more than one try! I've started saying "NO" to my daughter's usual lies/deceits/manipulations for money, etc. and each time she manages to pull herself through. Your son will figure it out - hopefully sooner than later. {hugs} [/QUOTE]
