[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 646398, member: 1550"] He's moving on in the right direction. Tough love does pay off eventually, if anything is going to work! You did great and so is he doing great. I never get involved with my grown kids relationships or SO's. If they call me to talk, I mostly listen. That is their life's path to take. I can tell you I did not like my oldest daughter's SO at first. He and she were living with his mother, and she isn't all that well-balanced, but, hey, it kept them both off the street right after daughter quit using drugs and I appreciate that. But her SO did not work for years and I started to wonder if he ever would grow up. My daughter was working hard for both of them. He finally went back to school (he is very bright) and got a computer something degree :) He was able to get a job and absolutely grew up. A better father to his little girl does not exist. He is now one of my own kids to me :) Kudos to your entire family. It's so great to hear good stories and this is a very good story. He can not be using many drugs if he is working that much.
