[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 713078, member: 1550"] What would have helped? Military schools dont want behavior problems...they throw them out. Everything is temporary. RN, dont beat yourself up. Often parents try drastic measures and it does no good. As soon as they get out, they relapse. Jail and prison dont even always work. My daughter was on parole twice. She had to check in often. She was threatened with juvy. As a minor. She kept using. Drugs are stronger than measures, which is why people quit when they truly are sick and tired of drug life and want to quit. Nothing else works except deep desire to quit. The best program on earth can help only the willing. And my daughter is proof that the willing can quit on their own. Do not think you could have done more. You did it all. Its 100% on your son and it always was. The addiction to drugs trumps all, except deep desire to stop. You are a wonderful parent. The best parents still cant make a drug addict get sober. Keep being awesome, but dont blame yourself. [/QUOTE]
