[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 748250, member: 15801"] Copa asked me on another friend for an update.... I have been checking the site on and off to try and keep up to date.....but have not been as regular here..... Mostly because I am doing my best to keep living my life and not focus on the issues with my son. My son is doing ok.....he has been taking a couple of classes at community college and doing really well in them.... which is wonderful as he never did well in school but now he seems to really want to and is putting in the effort. He has been looking for work and last I heard had found something at a landscaping place......but not sure if that has worked out. Haviing a felony on his record and no car or drivers liscence makes it a bit hard but he seems motivated to work which is good. He is still in the program he has been in which is a relief to us as they ease our minds and mean we are not always the first line of defense when something goes wrong. He is now off probation which means he thinks he can smoke pot with no ill effects....I think this is pure folly and will eventually catch up to him. This is why I am so glad he Is still involved in the program because they will be there to help pick up the pieces. I know it has to be up to him to figure out this wont work. He wont listen to me. I just think where we are going with pot legalization is people dont realize that for some people pot is a problem. Yes in many ways it is like alcohol and for some people alcohol is a serious problem even though for many it is not. Anyway I am doing well..... enjoying my life and focusing on living it. I do still go to alanon which has been huge in helping me focus on my life rather than his life. TL [/QUOTE]
