[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 505129, member: 3305"] pinevalley, So sorry to hear that your difficult child is choosing the more difficult/painful road at the moment. I think you and husband are going to have to draw a very hard line in the sand, very soon, as son sounds like he is leaving you with no other choice. I can see how badly you and husband want for your difficult child to graduate High School but it is difficult child's decision, unfortunately. And as others have pointed out, there's always the GED and Community College. Both of my son's got their GED's and both have enrolled in CC, my oldest is in right now (my young difficult child was enrolled at one time, sigh, now headed off to prison). I am sure last night was a difficult sleep for you. But our difficult child's tend to be very resourceful and know how to use people just as easily as drugs. I hope you and husband will come up with a plan you can live with and that may lead to the desired results. Consequences seem to be the only thing that gets most of our difficult child's attention and create an environment for change. I wish it wasn't so painful for us as their parents to watch it all unfold. Hugs, LMS ps...I also think Al Anon would be great for you and husband during this time especially. [/QUOTE]
