[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 638788, member: 1967"] I think difficult child is getting worried that her manipulation is not working anymore. She emailed husband saying that she was "rethinking whether selling her car is a good idea" and saying that she was willing to consider the resident program husband had mentioned up here if we thought it was the right thing for her to do. This is less than 24 hours after she adamantly refused to even consider an inpatient treatment program. I don't believe her for a second. Luckily, my therapist pointed out to me that she won't follow the rules and will get kicked out and then she will be close to us which will make things even worse. I could tell that husband was weakening so I reminded him what our therapist said. difficult child has to be the one that finds a place to go if she truly wants to get sober. I found a list of rehabs in Florida for indigent and homeless people and told him to send her the numbers. None of them are down in south Florida but that might be a good thing. They are in northern Florida (still far enough away from us). He asked if I thought we should tell her that we will help her get to a program if she finds one that will take her and I agreed to that. He could drive down and get her and drive her to the treatment center. That is all I am willing to do at this point. I don't know why she is rethinking selling her car. It is not working and according to her, she can't drive for a year. Of course, being told that she couldn't do something never stopped her before. [/QUOTE]
