[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 709027, member: 1550"] How about not feeling too hurt right now (i know its hard) but work with Dad to get rehab treatment for Son while he is still young enough for you to do it. Your son has a substance abuse problem. Perhaps that being the first priority may be most helpful. You would not probably want to wait until he is eighteen when you no longer have any control about it. His problem will make him want to live with whom he believes will be most lenient when he abuses substances. Hon, not trying to be harsh or mean or to sound like a know-it-but son sounds like he needs help NOW. I hope you and ex can be on the same page. Unfortunately, Dad sounds like an alcoholic. An alcoholic does not have to drink every day to be one. An alcoholic is, like your ex, unable to drink moderately. If they drink, they cant stop until they are drunk. Sometimes alcoholics can seem not as drunk as they really are. Alcoholism runs in families. Hopefully, ex wont want this for his child. Tons and tons of luck!! [/QUOTE]
