[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 756782, member: 15032"] John Welcome. I think you have been here before and that your son is an adult and so is your grandson. I'm so sorry for your pain. The truth is there is nothing YOU can do. All you can do is love them which I know you do. It would also be helpful to see a therapist. You just need to be good to yourself and your wife. Until your son wants to change his life there is nothing you can do to make him do what he needs to do. It has to come from him. That is great that he isn't drinking if that is true, but perhaps he is using not only marijuana but other drugs as well. If not, I'd think he'd be able to provide for himself. Has he ever functioned as an adult? Has he ever held a job and paid bills etc? More will be along to offer their ideas and advice and support. We all know how hard this is. If you pray, I would pray for the boys and for YOURSELF. That is what I did during the worst of times with our son. I got tremendous peace from that. [/QUOTE]
