So in reading these responses, I can see why other people in my family or who know my AS (outside of his drug-using friends) think I am wrong when I say my son has an ongoing drug problem. The stupid, nonsensical things he has done (and continues to do) are not directly tied to a substance that anyone can see. Many in my family label the problem as "immaturity, laziness, just one of those do-nothing riffraff kind of people." Truthfully, I question myself sometimes about whether this is the right forum I should be on - although I have no idea what forum would be the right one.
