[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 714153, member: 1550"] If it doesnt help them change, is it right for them? Or is it more for us? I had to accept my discomfort to do what motivated my daughter to quit. I didnt ever feel good sbout it until she told me that drugging on her own made her see how awful it was, especially as she faced each day alone needing to get money for drugs. She said i did the right thing. Until then I felt guilty, thinking that moving to a new state in her middle school years and a divorce contributed to the drug use. They both most likely did. I was desperate to stop the bleeding. She made no real effort to stop under our roof. She started using at 12 (yes, twelve) so it was six years of hell until she was told to leave and then she quit. If our nurturing and love cured addicts, none would be addicts. Addiction changes their brains. They dont seem to try unless we take desperate measures. [/QUOTE]
