[QUOTE="Kimm, post: 763830, member: 31793"] I’m a mother of an adult daughter.39 years old. She has done nothing with her life since @ 20 yrs old. One job for 6 months, 2 abusive relationships. One lasted 8 years the other shortly after till present time. For @ 10 years daughter in & out of rehabs for substance abuse. Basically anything she could shoot in her body. She stopped drugs & turned to alcohol. In & out of rehab for alcohol abuse for 8 years. She is in an abusive relationship with her boyfriend & they both live destructive lives. She has cirrhosis of the liver, & doctors have told her & myself she will die if she doesn’t stop. Jail for 6 days last year didn’t change her ways & now she’s back in jail for battery for hitting her boyfriend. She’s been in jail now 15 days begging me to bail her out. I’ve tried to reach out for court order treatment But no luck! I feel if she is in jail she can’t drink etc... people around me say I shouldn’t leave her in jail because she is not a criminal but they have no clue what it is like to have a child who is an addict. She promises everything which is the same thing I’ve heard a thousand times. I’m 60 & her stepdad is 66. There is sooo much I’ve left out but feel I would rather see her in jail sober etc.. then to bail her out & her to continue drinking and live a destructive life. Just need advice if I’m doing the right thing by leaving her in jail?? Thank you so much for reading this [/QUOTE]
