That, dear friends, is clarity at its best. Thanks Anvil.

Sunshine, I found, with my son, that it wasn't about what he wanted, nor was it about what I must or must not do...once I stepped away from the chaos. I didn't have to hide anything once he was out of my house and the locks were changed and an alarm system installed. I didn't have to decide if he could leave rehab or go to another one, I didn't have to drug test him because I knew if he was clean or not by his actions and behaviour...I didn't have to do anything except take very good care of myself and work my own recovery and let him choose to work his or choose not to.

What peace I found when I let go of trying to control what was never mine to control in the first place.

I pray you and your children can find the same safe peace.

Hugs
