[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 730589, member: 1233"] When my brother was in rehab, I strongly encouraged my parents to tell him ANYTHING he wasn't going to like while he was still in rehab. That way he had instant access to therapists if he was upset, and he also did NOT have instant access to anything he could abuse. He had to deal with his feelings and talk about them with a therapist or his peers if he was upset. If you wait until he is out to tell him, he won't have those resources. It is hard to talk about some things, but it is the best thing to do. [/QUOTE]
