[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 753878, member: 3305"] Thank you All for your responses! I appreciate your experiences and perspectives. Now, I have a question about an AA term..."It takes what it takes." So yesterday husband and I were walking out the door when son says, "Can I go? I need to stop by my smoke shop!" Well I got furious and said, No! In fact I was ready to just stay home at that point. Anyway husband and I did leave and on our way husband said "It takes what it takes... Every last drop or drug." But I wrestle with this...I mean do we really participate in our son's demise? Or is dear husband right? Should we just allow our son to find out the hard way once again that this will likely lead to a hospital stay or worse? You would think after 15 years of dealing with both of our sons addictions that I would know the answer to this! But I don't. Son is now 30 years old. Has accomplished very little in life...he does have 3 beautiful children which we adore! Who is right? What is right? I'm confused! LMS [/QUOTE]
