[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 505069"] PV, Unfortunately, it sounds like he has made his choice. My difficult child is 18 too. I think if we help (enable) them along at this age, then they may get some traction (job, education, assets, etc.) in their adult lives without dealing with the addiction. That will make it harder for them to hit rock bottom later. At least that is my theory...so I am trying so very hard to allow any and all consequences to fully hit him now. You have to do what works for you. If you aren't attending a program like Al-anon...I highly recommend it. [/QUOTE]
