[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 473291, member: 1967"] Wow, Dazed, tell me what you really think. Thank you for your reply, though. I know you are trying to help but I can't give up on difficult child when she is making an effort. I am using Fran's "do to get" philosophy. I have not done anything for her in regards to getting treatment for herself. She initiated the call to to the in-patient rehab center, drove herself there, completed the program, and has agreed to go to a halfway house. I think she had done enough for us to give her some financial support. I have not called any halfway houses looking for placement for her or called to check the veracity of her statements. I agree with you and klmo there. She has to take responsibility for her recovery and we are just adding the financial support that she needs to make it happen. Yes, we could refuse all financial support but I don't see that as helpful at this point. Even her rehab counselor said that money makes a difference in the quality of halfway houses and successful outcomes. Are we throwing money away? Very possibly but this is our daughter and we love her and still hope for recovery. Naive, probably. . . but worth the money to me. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
