Sounds like you know what has to be done...I feel very bad for all of you; I hate what addiction does to people and I hope that Cindy finds a way to pick herself up and really commit to recovery. You are in my prayers and especially your son and Kristen. I think HP is watching Kristen closely. I know NJ DYFS has a bad rep at times, but like everyting, it depends on the person involved. They have many, many many caring caseworkers and if Cindy is on their radar, I think that is a good thing for the child. Thanks for giving your son the opportunity to express himself to you...I think when kids are allowed to talk and an adult will listen and just try to validate their feelings, it helps them move on. Hugs and prayers.
