Trying to Get Thru to my Son
Permalink  

(((((Friends))))),

Ok, today is another day.....have taken my son's car from him..he is 18 and what else can I do...I can only do this because it is in my name and I know his car means everything to him....

Now I don't know what this will accomplish or even if it will accomplish anything however it's worth a shot.

Today he got up with that attitude of a typical addict behavior.  Didn't say anything for awhile, asked for his car I said no.......he said can we talk about this?  I said, yes....so he started I am not addicted to anything i can stop.  I said,  well I guess you will have to prove it.  You might know i have another test on hand and you never know when I am going to make you take it.

Well we spent some time together talking.  I can only pray that something got thru and he has promised to stay away from that pill head friend.  And by no means am I blaming his friend for his behavior he has a mind of his own however, I don't like him hanging out with this person it always seems to bring bad things with it.

All I know is we will see....keep him in your prayers please....God Grant me the Serenity....because I really am trying to handle this in a rational manner.

With Hope,
Andrea

Lifting you both up in Prayers that He can over come this... I have a Nephew in the same boat and it breaks my heart to see him just be OK with falling in the pill bottle of life... He is 20 and it isn't looking good, I have spoke to him along with his Uncle, and now it is all left to him...

Love & prayers My Friend pray.gif

Sorry I have been so busy I haven't had the time to respond to anyone's posts.  You know I always have you & your family in my prayers dear friend.  Maybe he is just going through a stage.  You are setting boundaries and rightfully so. It must be scary though.  Here's hoping & praying that all will be well.  Stay positive.  Much love & blessings to you & your family.

Live strong,
Karilynn & Pipers Kitty aww
