[QUOTE="agingrapidly, post: 697229, member: 20622"] I never understood detachment, as we have a close friend who has attended Al-Anon and detached. But, now I am beginning to understand. We are making one last effort to help our son, but if this fails we will need to detach because that is the only way he will get help (I hope). I know that I can't keep enabling him to do what he has been doing (I too posted my story). As another poster stated, if your son does have depression (or another underlying issue) then pot really is bad for them, as is binge drinking. I did not know how much my son was smoking until we started testing him at a facility...it also let me know that he was not doing other drugs. But, he was living home so we had a little bit of control. [/QUOTE]
