My 19 yr old sson is in a drug and alcohol intensive 30 day treatment place. I believe they have little phone contact with the outside world.

Well he has been there 2 weeks. One phone call to us and we understand 1 to his mother. DH gets a call this past Tues at work..... Dad, can you bring me down some cigarettes? They are the only thing I can do between classes and counselling.

Ummm big fat NO!

With your family history you need to quit smoking. Also try reading, stupid. And your father is NOT coming out of work and run downtown like your bitch to drop off cigarettes for you. Oh and thanks for asking how things are in the Land of the Free seeing you are unlikely to see us anytime soon esp with Christmas looming.

The boy has no alcohol/drug addiction per se. He just goes along with his heavy drinking stoner friends because he always has had a big problem with saying no to friends and losing them. Not an addict but on his way down that path. So we aren't talking hard core here.

I think someone has a way to go beore he becomes a functioning memeber of society again.
