[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 383566, member: 59"] toughlove, was he drinking too? My difficult child only smoked pot too and drank. We were under the mistaken impression that the pot smoking was sporadic and we had no idea she was drinking as much as she was if at all. I mean we knew occassionally she drank some beer but we had no idea to the extent. A drug is a drug is a drug. When they go to rehab they have to quit drug and alochol, no matter what their drug of choice is. Those who came in for heroin are surprised to find out they can never drink again. I'm sure that was a very hard discussion to have with him. I still remember the day we told difficult child that unless she went for treatment she had to pack her bag and leave that day. She was hung over and felt horrible so maybe that was incentive to go to treatment. She told us after that she was relieved we sent her for treatment because she knew she needed it but couldn't do it on her own. PatriotsGirl I think that's a good plan for now. Nancy [/QUOTE]
