Our son, now 18, too suffers with addictions to marijuana and hydrocodone. We have all been dealing with this addiction for more than four years. I can't begin to explain the heartache, pain and distress his addiction has and continues to cause our family. He has been through two different rehab programs, one court ordered and the other as a result of our threats to kick him out. Still he is using. He has lied, cheated, stolen more than you could imagine from everyone in our house, including his 2 year old niece. How do you forgive? When do you say enough is enough. My husband and I are at our wits end. Our other children 23 and 19, both still at home in college and gainfully employed are disgusted with his behavior and angry with us for not kicking him out. I don't know what to do??? I pray but that is all I can do. He doesn't want to stop, though he feels he has to. He has no money, no job, and no goals. Reading beautiful boy was like talking to a friend, someone who understands where I'm at and where I've been. Most people don't understand who haven't had addiction painfully touch their lives. My mother was an alcoholic, another story, but somehow that was different. This is my CHILD, as parents we are supposed to "fix it" and I can't. So now dear people I ask for your wisdom. What do we do??
