[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 675369, member: 1550"] NOTHING will work unless HE WANTS IT TO WORK. Yes. Unless he is cooperative, nothing will work...he will sabotage anything tried or give up or lie and say he is trying but really won't try. We can not force even beloved children to do their best or live good lives. We can only control OUR lives and how we react to their bad choices. There is no way to control anybody but ourselves, not even a family member or dear friend. It's not possible to help without their agreement and willingness to do better. Even then, the work is on the person who needs to change. [/QUOTE]
