[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 546186, member: 59"] That is such great news Zardo. I agree with everything you said and it's wonderful when everything clicks, especially you and husband being on the same page so difficult child cannot divide and conquer. It's so important when they are young to start the interventions. I was told that some kids need to be kept safe from themselves until their brain catches up and they start making better choices. Of course that didn't work for us but true alcoholism is difficult to treat at such a young age. I did find "Addict in the Family" very helpful, as well as the sequel "Everything Changes". I have also been blessed to find two parent support groups and the friendships I have made through these groups is so comforting. It was wonderful to read about the family vacation time and your difficult child does sound as if he is getting it. I know he is young and there are a lot of dangers out there, especially when he goes back to school, but you and husband are doing a wonderful job and you know what to look for and something tells me you will hop on it right away. Thanks for sharing your good news. It's so important for those of us who are still struggling to hear that it can turn around. Nancy [/QUOTE]
