If they can figure out how to get their drugs, they can figure out how to get to work. Put an ad up for a ride to and from from a co worker, etc.

Being moms, we cannot help but always have hope sweet one. They are part of our body walking around, no man can understand the feelings we have about that. There are just as strong feelings if our kids are adopted .Just different.

It is horrible hard to say no to them. Hard to do the opposite that we know is the only way.

They have to figure it all out for themselves. I have seen fifty year old men still begging to mommy and daddy. They never said no, they gave until the disease sucked them dry.

Our kids only chance to get on a program of recovery is for us to step out of their path. They have to go on themselves, they have to find out THEY can figure it out.We just cannot take away what they must learn!

WE have to be strong enough to not help, which tells them."Honey I love you, I have faith you can figure it out yourself." They need that.

I know that I honestly grew up and am to this day after my dear Mother was taken. She wanted to soften every blow for me, never wanted me to go without.

Then my first husband dies. So here is Mother filling in and adding to our little family of me and two kids.

I was super sensitive, I was anxiouis, afraid, hopeless, insecure. But becuz I HAD to grow up, I did. I feel I can do anything.

I loved my mom for protecting me as I am very sensitive very. But even better, now I learned my parents left me a foundation to build from.

Take care of you  and your wonderful husband, take care of him and you. and let him take care of you and him too.  love,debilyn
