[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 712940, member: 15032"] Thanks. He is there because he knows we are DONE and has nowhere else to live BUT I do think he is finally realizing that he needs to do this BUT I don't know if he will stick with it. It's hard for a 21 year old - in my opinion - to accept they cannot have a beer ever again. At least it would have been for me, but my life has not been stalled nor torn apart by drug or alcohol use. I just know how young people think. If someone tells me I can't have something (like a big piece of cake!) I want it more. Naturally everyone there is OLDER than he is. He sounds excited about his sponsor. He said the guy has been sober 30 years (around 50 years old I think) and really LOUD which he likes because son is shy/quiet and he likes that he is talkative. He is friends with the owner of the facility too. He mentioned he is gay and I am thrilled with that because I am a big fan because I feel that brings a lot of things to the table such as compassion and sensitivity that I think will be a benefit to my son also. I can understand how you feel about your son Tanya. It's been over five years and I'm already exhausted!! [/QUOTE]
