When I allowed my 2o yr old son to come home after rehab it turned out to be a mistake...but I live and learn. The contract + expations we drew up was no defense against his addiction thinking. In hindsight he should have gone to a sober living house. However, he did that after his second rehab and he relapsed that time as well. 3 yrs later and two rehabs and he is still an addict tho only pot/alcohol now not heroin/crack. His best hope for recovery will be a long term treatment or he will age out. It takes what it takes for these young addicts. Some recover early for many it is a long process. I wish your family well.
