[QUOTE="Lost in sadness, post: 724664, member: 21056"] Thank you for your reply. I agree with the 'young' statement. Sometimes this makes me feel bad as a mother. He is young and he is out there on his own and shouldn't be. He should be home being nurtured by me! I feel it is my fault and by not allowing him home or not helping him is pushing him to make bad decisions. I also think will we still be here when he is 22,25,30 etc as we have already done 2+ years of it. It seems in the US that you have rehabs you can send your children to. Here is the UK there is no such thing unless you pay for it, so the options are, they are at home doing what they like or you throw them out. I would love a rehab option. I am so sorry the holidays are hard for you. They are made out to be so happy and exciting but for many they are a painful reminder of everything that is wrong or lost in our lives. I am glad you have things that are right too and hope you find some peace and happiness in that. Much love and a huge hug from me! xx [/QUOTE]
