[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 704954, member: 1550"] If his friends use stuff like Molly (If this is not another name for pot) then your son is probably more involved with drugs than you know. My daughter used drugs too and it wasn't until she quit and told all that we learned (and were shocked) at the array of drugs shed used. We thought it was mostly pot. My daughter knew better than to smoke pot at home. I called the cops on her once. Nobody, not even my beloved daughter, breaks the law in my house without consequences. By the time we found out it was more than pot, we made her leave and she quit, even cigarettes. I am not surprised nobody took in your son. Most people don't want to deal with others problem adult children or teens. I don't think it was a good idea for you to take in those other kids. I was a foster mother and adopted three kids, but my daughter's drug friends were not allowed on the property, much less in my house. They stayed away. I was mean mom. I'd call the cops if they were near me and most of her friends used illegal drugs...they did not want the cops around them so they didn't come over. We also cut off her money completely so at least she got a job. And she did graduate. So once she quit she took out a loan and went to a two year college. I am really proud of her. But she hated me when I made her leave. Seems now like it never happened. We are so close. You have to decide what you can deal with. I had young kids (my youngest daughter is now at school for Criminal justice) and I didn't want the younger kids to see this and think we allowed it quietly. I think we would have made her leave regardless. She was getting worse under our roof. And her drama controlled our lives. Not acceptable to us. I am sorry you are going through this. It's not fun. They are intolerable when using drugs. You have my empathy. [/QUOTE]
