what's next
 
Little bro says he will go to rehab. Yet he finds reasons like a new job to keep from going. He lives in my rent house I buy his food cloth his kids and the cycle doesn't seem to change. I know that u should not enable an addict. He claims to use meth socially but for someone who has done it for 12 yrs that is not social and claims to be a pot addict. Am I wrong to tell him he has to get out of my rent house. Which I still have a mortgage on. I am torn between what is right in my mind and what I will face from the rest of the family. He says he hasn't used in 2 weeks but I know for fact he used 4 days ago and had to take ddrug test today for new job. I mean he accused me of tossin out a 'pee' bag whatever that is. Any advice is helpful. I don't know how much more of his usery and lies I can handle. I have my own child and really don't want her around him if he is goin to continue using.
