Long road but the path ahead holds hope.
Difficult Child will not get up on time for work. Even with me waking him he works a day and then misses a ride the rest of the work days. Does not get it that he is the problem. Blamed his ride so this week I said I will drive you, but I will not wake you. You have to get yourself up.
Today he slept in, said he didn't insisted I take him to the yard. The owner said he was late missed the work shuttle and they don't need him.
He is all sad and said I am sad and depressed. I sad no. You feel bad because you know that this is not your rides problem. This is not your bosses problem. This is your problem. You won't go to bed early and you won't wake up on time. No work no money. I told him nothing changes until something changes. You need to make some changes.
I am so annoyed I dropped him off at home and can't even go into the house. At a McDonalds parking lot typing this.
He has been going to his bail and rehab meetings, he is clearly off the heavy drugs and admits he still smokes pot on the weekends. I tell him zero tolerance and if he brings drugs home we will ask him to leave. Yes he is In an outpatient rehab that focuses on harm reduction, and they allow them to go to therapy and sessions while they are using. This is in the hopes of providing them with enough education and resources to get them to stop all together.
Am I expecting too much?
