[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 694641, member: 20054"] TL- so sorry this is just plain awful. I believe this is good, you can remind him there are people to call (and you are not these people). I do think as moms what we have proved, is that we are moms, not addiction counselors, not mental health professionals. This is way above our pay grade. I know for my son, he is serious for a minute. When it gets too hard, he quits. A recovering addict said to us "well, it must still be fun. When it quits being fun, he'll do something different." The trick is for us to find peace in our lives and our relationship with them regardless of the knowing. The eastern thought of not judging everything as good or bad is so foreign to us. We just weigh events and people that way. But maybe we simply should be less sure that we know is ultimately good or bad for anyone else. Even our kids. I really like this. It says it all. Thank you COPA. Prayers. [/QUOTE]
