Hang in there. Who knows?--He might find recovery in jail. In my opinion and experience, toughness works. It's when the parent stops enabling that the kid begins to straighten out. My husband's parent bailed him out of 76 arrests (yes that number is correct), until they finally said no more when he was almost 40 years old. He had to go to prison to find recovery, but that's what it took for him. I wonder what might have happened if they had stopped after the 2nd DUI, or even the fifth.
