I hope they never have to relate to keeping tinfoil hidden. I keep it under my bed which is probably not the smartest place but that's where it is.<br /><br />I also hate to admit this but when my childless friends feel bad that they never had kids and are now past childbearing age, I tell them to be thankful. You know I love my son more than life itself, but today's world is not the world we grew up in and its only getting worse (sorry to sound negative).<br /><br />I care deeply about you and your son and pray for ALL of the parents here everyday.Bar L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11100008292699584336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-37591282983182058922009-09-19T16:55:46.441-07:002009-09-19T16:55:46.441-07:00Gledwood, he has smoked oxycotin, norco and vicode...Gledwood, he has smoked oxycotin, norco and vicoden off of foil, and he probably has done herion but i am not aware of it if he has, just assume at this point he has.

Even with mega-doses of allergy pills and yes I do go to doctors and pharmacists and they have stores. There store does not involve standing on street corners with their pants hanging half down their ass. <br /><br />Please don't lump me with those people with running noses that bleed, I am only the father of an addict.Dad and Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204246139693620329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-74335390598659740262009-09-18T06:36:10.279-07:002009-09-18T06:36:10.279-07:00i think you said it best, work on your own recover...i think you said it best, work on your own recovery. i am so sorry about the foil, i remember mom kept asking where are all the spoons? i thought, i don't know, it wasn't until after i stopped using that i found a whole bunch of dirty spoons in the basement. how terrible the feeling was to see them. right there, then i remember i started to shake and i asked my sisters husband to throw them out, he said don't you want to wash them? <br />i bought mom a whole bunch of new silverware.<br />mom could not stop me from using, i had to hit my bottom, my only thing was that when i was using, i told mom about it, i thought i will be honest, that will be better then lying or sneaking behind her back?!? how insane that is i don't know but i had enough self guilt to not want to add lying to my own mother. that is just a little of my story. i am sorry about the foil, and mom i am sorry i lost your spoons.clean and crazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09156586299182570611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-2343644954175300242009-09-17T23:23:15.079-07:002009-09-17T23:23:15.079-07:00Gin-thanks for the support and I too am sorry you ...Gin-thanks for the support and I too am sorry you have to hate something like Dixie cups. You are such a loving person and it always comes through to me in your writing.<br /><br />Debby-thank you for the support. I feel connected to you and know that you understand. I am glad you will be following my blog:)<br /><br />Cat-I am sorry you also have a child behaving as my son is. It is not the desired group to be in, but it is a loving and supportive group for sure.<br /><br />Syd-you are amazing...you always make me feel hope and such compassion comes from your writing. It is a shame I always tell younger people "don't have children". Something a mother should never advise another.<br /><br />Mom & Dad-funny I have my foil locked in our gun safe out in the garage. I never look at it. You are such an inspiration to me and I thank you so much for your honesty and support as I know you also understand all too well.<br /><br />Chic Mama-my son is a man child (age 23). I know what you mean about rubbing of the nose, I also hate people walking around sniffing constantly. Thank you also so much for being so supportive. <br /><br />I feel better knowing I have people out there who care and are willing to be there for me when I need it.The neverending battle of child's opiate addictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04138779247145438268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-45661121003128582282009-09-17T15:15:56.173-07:002009-09-17T15:15:56.173-07:00How old is your son? :0(

I don't know how you do it....seeing your child do that to themselves, at least the children and I are out of it. We just get the knock on effects from a distance.<br />I really hope he listens to you and manages eventually to sort himself out.<br /><br />BTW- my pet hate is seeing people rub their noses, I instantly think I wonder if they use cocaine....I can't help it but be suspicious.Chic Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01803588856685163353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-51071836494866326682009-09-17T14:14:10.783-07:002009-09-17T14:14:10.783-07:00We keep our aluminum foil locked in the trunk of t...We keep our aluminum foil locked in the trunk of the car. It doesn't stop anything but it just means he can't use ours. <br /><br />It was quite funny one time we had dinner guests and the wife ask me to get her some foil. I just naturally got up went to the car pulled out my keys and got the foil. She got what she needed and I took it back. We got some real strange questioning type looks. <br /><br />Told them if you don't know why, don't ask.Dad and Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204246139693620329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11199221663659821.post-38800483472944581382009-09-17T13:08:57.463-07:002009-09-17T13:08:57.463-07:00I'm sorry about that.

I could feel it within myself since I thought it would be good that his teacher liked the paper.

They are evil-- I hate that nasty dark line from the heroin.
