A update on yesterday's topic
Permalink  
 


Sat down and talked with my son yesterday:


 


Got a few out on the table and have a better understanding of the situation.  Son is crying out for help and not sure how to help him, right now all I can do is offer my support, We actually hugged for the first time in a while and it felt like a start.


Right now it's come my attention and feel that I need to share my experience, strength and hope.  If any suggestions on coping with this please feel free to share, greatly appreciate it. Also alot of prayers.


 


thanks

Hi Tina,

I'm so glad that you and your son were able to sit and talk and hug each other. I don't have any suggestions or any advice to offer you, but please know that you're both in my prayers.

Take care,

Carol

If the kid is willing to go to any lengths...give me a call after 6...and Ile give you an NA contact that he can call....and talk to...


And then Mother hasta back off..and see what he does with it...on HIS OWN...Its a love and detatch thing..


Hard to do...but have been there...


Theres a closed meeting..15 minutes away..on Monday night..

Thanks


For the response,


Phil I do appreciate ur seggustions and have backed off on that end of it.  The child does have a contact for NA,  your right it is a love and detach thing. It is hard to do, guess  what I'm saying is, it's only a matter of time.  And patience, and one day at a time, just feeling lost and realize that he's got to want it.


He has been making progress though and is struggling.  With lots prayers and support I'm sure he pull through, I also have been dealing with another child whom has been struggling with mixed emotions as well about this situation.


thanks
