[QUOTE="Lil, post: 736492, member: 17309"] Most people I know have known me a long time and know about my struggles with my son and even new people, when they asked, when things were at their worst, I never denied it. In fact, I probably have overshared many times. Sometimes people surprise you and you get: [I]"Oh, I completely understand - my brother is an addict!"[/I] or [I]"My sister has had the same problems with her oldest."[/I] But, when I didn't want to say anything I just would say, [I]"You know how some kids are - he's out 'finding himself' right now."[/I] or simply restrict the answer to name and age and change the subject. After all, it's not anyone else's business. [/QUOTE]
