[QUOTE="KFld, post: 7699, member: 2442"] I would continue to make your visits as you have, but stress to him the importance of the program and that he has to follow the rules or he will probably get kicked out. Is that possible, can they kick him out? Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about if they can't do that, but I'm just trying to figure out what may work. It is good that they have to earn priviledges and he has seen what will happen if he doesn't follow the rules. I also think it's a good sign that he knows being home right now and around temptations that he isn't sure if he's ready to face those yet. That to me tell me he's learning something. I don't think I would use yourselves as punishment. I think I would leave that up to the program. I'm sure they have priviledges on the grounds that he could lose if he chooses to break the rules. Let them take care of that. Give him all the love and support you can while he's there, while at the same time getting him to see the importance of why he is there and hopefully what he is gaining from it. [/QUOTE]
