somberheart,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, my son has a full time job, which is one of the reasons he felt he could make it on his own. He works at a fast food place, and is even in training to become a manager. I just hope that he can hold on to the job despite his personal choices to keep using and drinking. But I've been told by addiction counselors that many addicts and drinkers put a lot of focus and effort into keeping their jobs because that is their lifeline to their drugs. The question is whether they become so out of control in their personal life that it starts showing at work.
