[QUOTE="seriously, post: 447560, member: 11920"] Out tonight. They could have burned down your house. You could have come home to someone OD'd in your bed. They could have run someone down with your car. You don't know that someone didn't get a key made and will be able to let themselves in to your house any time they want. Change all the locks tomorrow and make son pay the bill. Same with the car, unfortunately. That's all you need - to come out one morning and find someone has taken it for a joy ride courtesy of the keys they had access to when you were gone. Unless your financial records were under lock and key I would assume that someone has looked at your tax returns, your credit card statements - everything. You need to take immediate action to deal with the very real possibility of identity theft. Any valuables should be checked to see if they are still there. If you have any weapons or ammo on the premises that aren't locked up - check them. He's addicted if he can't even manage a 3 day trip without getting high. Until he's ready to admit that and seek treatment no $$, no material support like a place to live, no new clothes - nothing. I would make it clear that (if you have any ability to do this) the college fund is now closed until he has had 3 random drug tests in a row that are clean followed by at least monthly random drug tests and he is actively participating in a drug treatment program. I would give him a list of the Naranon meetings in your town and tell him you will help him get drug treatment - if you are willing to do this. He's legally an adult. He needs to get that right now.
