[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 383535"] Boy figuring out treatment optionsn is hard....it is hard Occupational Therapist (OT) sort out the different places and what to do. It is a bit overwhelming. We had a very very tough conversation with our son last night. We basically old him we would not help pay for an apartment and he can not come home. He was very upset by this, I think he was counting on coming home. So he feels he has no option. We told him he cannot come home unless he has treatment. At this point he does not really admit to a drug problem, in his mind he just smokes weed, but what he does know is he does not like jail at all. So that is at least a good step. I felt bad after the conversation. Sad for him, it is hard leaving him with no real options and yet i also know it is the only thing we can do right now. He cant come home until he has done some real serious work on himself. It is not good for us and it is not good for our daughter and in the end letting him come home and do the same old thing is not good for him. But it is hard to keep all that in mind when you are talking to him and he so obviously feels trapped... which in reality he is and he did it to himself. [/QUOTE]
