How Do I Get My Son Off Drugs?

…and the earth? I know it then goes on mention two kids who get it on together while they eat fruit and some brother smiting his brother (I think this occurs on the streets of East Gethsemane). I LOVED this book as a kid and now that I’m regressing, I’d really like to find it again. Lots of blood & gore, an alcoholic named Noah who exacts revenge on his own son for seeing him naked, sacrifices of wives and children…but all in a child-like setting called “Babel” wherein God removes all remnants of free will by making it impossible for people to understand one another . Does ANYONE know the title and author? It would be so appreciated!
(((Tash))). Forgive me. I’m a wee bit cranky. Seeing you has cheered me, though.

My son ran away 7 years ago?
7 years ago my son ran away with his girlfriend at 16. They have been best friends since preschool. When they were 16, i caught them having sex and drinking alcohol. so i kicked her out of the house. about a few hours later, the girlfriends parents called saying there daughter ran away. that was the last time i heard from them. seven years later my daughter started yelling at me saying that my brother and his girlfriend are on tv. my son was on tv as a LAPD detective and with his girlfriend, as his wife. i just dont understand how my son could get married and and become a police detective and being a alcoholic without my input. i just dont think he is ready for such a change and i think i still need to care for him, hes still my son.

i dont care if you believe this or not,it is true, i just want som advice should i trace him and surprise him, he left at 16, and i feel i should try to still raise him. I called the girlfriends parents and they started crying thinking they will never see there baby girl again, because of my son being a cop and her husbend.
i know it was him, because his name was on the screen

i dont think my son is old enough to be a detective in LAPD and have a gun with all the crime. I dont think he is old enough to mary a girl and have those feelings for someone and i dont think he is old enough to support a wife and take care of her. what should i do about the wifes parents, because they are scard they will never see there little girl again, because of her husbend.

my fiance has been taking care of his son alone since he was born and hes now 3. the mother who left him and didnt want any part of the child is now trying to take him away. she is accousing him of alcohol around the house. yes he does drink but not around his son. if hes drunk or even planning on drinking he takes him to his mothers house before he does. hes a great father and now all of a sudden the mother is trying to turn and pinpoint the wrong subjects. so can child services really take his son away? what can be done because i dont know much of this subject….

My son in a alcoholic, is there any drugs in tablet form so that he can give away drinking. He is not a easy person to go for advice or therapy, only choice is to give him tablets without his knowledge. Anyone can help me.

My son is 14 and he is a very good boy, but I worry because I know how young I was when temptations started. (to smoke pot, drink, etc.) He has ADD and things aren’t always a breeze for him, so I am afraid he will turn to drugs at some point. I tell him often (without nagging) to wait until he is 21 to decide whether or not to drink and he seems to listen. I heard that alcohol affects the development of the frontal lobe of the brain, so I remind him from time to time that he is just so much better off without it. I also don’t want to seem like I am preaching. I am a waitress and I have tended bar, so he knows I am not anti-alcohol. I just want him to make age-appropriate decisions. If anyone has any added incentive for kids to stay abstinate, please let me know. Thanks!

So, I’m 5 months pregnant and my unborn son’s father has never been around. When I contacted him to tell him the gender of the baby, he said, “I didn’t realize you were still pregnant”. We were together for 8 months and decided we wanted kids. Two weeks after I told him I was pregnant, he dissapeared and reappeared with a girlfriend (girl’s are stupid. Who would date a guy with an unborn child on the way?) Anyway, he is STILL not around. I have all these emotions and needs for an expected mother, and he refuses to return my e-mails or phone calls. He asked for ultrasound pictures. When I brought them to him he hardly even glanced at them. He has a DVD made of the ultrasound which I want back, but I don’t even want to see him. It took me a week to get over my rage after seeing him last time. It has been 5 months (minus the ultrasound visit) since I’ve even seen him. I ran into him and his girlfriend in public, and he dissapeared…as usual. I don’t deserve this. I know he is an alcoholic and I don’t want my child around that. I want to ask him to relinquish his rights so I can not always wonder what he’s doing and why he isn’t calling ona 24/7 basis. Is it wrong of me? This resentment and dissapointment is already too much, I couldn’t imagen the issues when my child is actually born.
First off, the father can sign to give up his rights. Secondly, I am also talking about the option of soul custody. I understand all the legal crap. To spare details in a lenghty message I didn’t go on and on.

Also, HE OBVIOUSLY DOESN’T WANT TO BE AROUND, OTHERWISE HE WOULD!!! DUH!!! I am not pressuring him. I hardly EVER contact him. Read people!!! I contacted him to invite him to the ultrasounds, which he declined. And contacted him to tell him his an asshole. And once more to tell him it is what it is, and I’d like him to be there, yet still NO ACTION!!!

because she tested positive for Meth when she gave birth. The baby was taken the following day and placed in a foster home for a couple of months and then given to our Aunt while my cousin has been going through drug rehab, parenting classes, etc. Well, my Aunt has had him for many months now… the baby is actually 11 months old. The courts have allowed my cousing to see the baby twice a week unsupervised now for a couple hours each day… and she recently put in for overnight visits (waiting for court approval). She says that she is “stage 4″ in the program. The court date to determine whether or not her rights will be severed or she’ll regain custody is in a couple months. Does it sound like the courts are heading in the direction of reuniting her with the baby? My Aunt is distraught because she is worried the courts will give my cousin custody. What do you think? Who do you think will get custody? Anyone know what “stage 4 means” and how the system works?? Thanks.
We’re in California. She has also signed away the rights to her older two children when she was found in a drug house and CPS was going to put the kids in foster care. She signed them over to their fathers. She never sees them. The man she is with, the father of the baby is a felon and is still doing drugs.

I have been with a man on and off. I believe he is back on meth, after 2 years clean. We were closer than ever. He included me in his sons life, his mom’s cancer, and was so loving. I just found out, he is seeing this meth wh*re. He changed greatly. He says, he was just using me for $. (he did start asking for $ a few months back) How can he be so loving and close then boom he never loved me, was only using me? Is it because she is an addict and nasty and at his own level? Do you think that our 9 years together really never meant anything?

I KNOW I NEED TO MOVE ON. I AM TRYING, I JUST NEED TO EASE MY MIND BECAUSE MY HEART IS BREAKING.

What is the first step to moving with kids. One is disable and the other is 4. I am in school and i don’t work at this time but i am ready to leave. I have been living with my baby father for 6 years and he has been an alcoholic from the beginning but i was stupid in love at the time. We have got into some serious one on one were the law was call more than once. I have been though so much with this man and yes he is a man. I haven’t work really since we been together but i will work. My school hours have been so crazy and having two kids it was very hard. I don’t want my baby to know what kind of dad he is. My mind was made up as of 12am Jan 1, 2009 I am leaving him, but I am just looking for which way to go first. Another thing is he love his son more than he love his self and that is one of our biggest argument don’t take his son away from him. Oh yeah he don’t want AA.

My ex and I split up nearly 2 years ago. He had been seeing our son nearly every week and said that when he left he left me “not our son”. Well, I haven’t heard from him for the past 4 months. I’m very confused and pretty livid for my son. He asks about him and I’m not sure what to say. I tell him that his father loves him and that I know he misses him.

Some people have mentioned that he’s probably in a new relationship but I still can’t understand how that would make him want to totally cut off all communication with his child who he was actively involved with up until 4 months ago.

I wonder if it could be drugs? He was very inconsistent over the summer when he was watching him. Would show up late most days, couldn’t seem to get himself up on time and would call with every excuse in the book day in and day out. He’s 35 years old and I know he did Meth recreationally before we got together, when he was 23. But he didn’t do that when we were together.

However, in the past year he’s lost his job (was fired after working there for 8 years) due to being late all the time. Said he was denied unemployment. And he’s just hanging out with 21 year old girls and has 2 bachelors living with him now.

I’m just trying to understand how someone can so completely change. I wonder why he wouldn’t be reachable or interested in seeing his own son for so long?

How can men (or people) do this to their children? Last we talked we were amicable and all was civil.
I have seen my ex driving around town, so he’s not incarcerated. He acts like he doesn’t see me. I texted him 3 months ago. Never heard back from him. I see that he’s adding friends to his facebook page, so I know he hasn’t fallen off the planet and isn’t in jail or worse.

My son’s father is giving my son pot to smoke–supplying him with alcohol…(MY son’s father is an alcholic/drug user–hasn’t held a jog for years) I know you can’t run away from your problems–but my son is taking on a lot of his dad vises..My son is 18 this year–and I want him to get counselling BUT more importantly I want my son to live as far away from his DAD as possible NOW–before my son settles into his college years…Am I doing the right THING????? I have been toying with this for YEARs–but now that my son is turning 18 (and I see the influence–I want to move HIM) PLEASE HELP!!
I want to add that my son is not prepared to live on his own…also my ex was also physically abusive (therefore when I move my son I’m aware he willl need help/therapy)….
I want to add That my son lives with me–HE can’t stand his dad’s drinking (HE has had the oppurtunity to live with his dad many times but refuses!!) Do I have a chance?

He is a very responsible kid. He is above average in school. He is not into drugs or alcohol. And believe me, I would know. He has an older sister who was into drugs I’d never heard of and we caught on very quickly. The friend he wants to go with is a nice kid when he comes to our house. I do know he has been in trouble in the past with drinking and the like. But he is always great when he’s here. His parents are complete nut jobs and he is the most normal person in his family. Examples: The father drinks heavily, Mom does pills. They would be driving from Connecticut to New Hampshire and staying with the other boy’s uncle, whom I do not know. My son and this boy did do a weekend camping in June about 20 miles away and there were no problems. Any thoughts?

I got a phonecall this morning, I was informed that My son’s older foster brother (17) passed away yesterday from a drug overdose. I’ve never met him before, but I do know they grew up together from an early age and both lived with the same family, and my son has also told me about him.

I haven’t told him yet…He’s been so happy with life lately and I just don’t want to break his heart by telling him the news. This is going to really hurt him and I know it, from what I know they were quite close until I adopted him last October and they haven’t talked since then. Another point that might make things even worse for him is that his mom before me was a meth addict…He died from a meth overdose. There has only been bad memories with my son and his other mom, she was abusive and neglectful, and from what I heard would go insane when she wasn’t high.

What would be the best way I can approach him with this, and help him cope with this?I’m a single mom, so I’ll have to give all the support I possibly can. He’s sensitive and he’s also still only 14, I know this is really going to be hard on him.

My ex-husband is an alcoholic and I’m scared that my son would turn into one also. So, I’m looking for organizations or societies that might us be informed about alcoholism. I don’t want my son to be like his father. I want him to realize the consequences of abusing alcohol so that he would try to stay away from it. Please help me. I want to save my son.
