Emotions ran high Friday night when T snuck out and didn't come home.  T was to be grounded because of his relapse and his behavior toward the assistant principal.  Friday nights hubby and I play...

I know a lot can transpire in one day but we ain't starting out very well.  I think T is giving up.  I can't get him out of bed.  He is already late and knows I won't call in an excuse for him. ...

Got a call from the attendance lady....AGAIN!  Everyday this week.  T wanted to come home (always around 10).  I don't know why they call me.  He said he has nothing to do because the students...

Yes - T is still home on a school morning at 9AM.  He is still feeling the side effects from his weekend usage (the lack of sleep part).  In the past I would nag him, yell at him, and threaten him...

He relapsed.  We ended up in the emergency room and return home until 5AM.  Thankfully he's okay.  He ingested mushrooms and had a bad reaction to them.  Mushrooms don't show up in any testing --...

Heard from the detective.  He thinks what I proposed is an excellent idea.  Detective K said he's had numerous parents approach him for information and he didn't have any.  Actually, I find that...

The other night, Tuesday, my husband and I went to the police station community house for parents and adults to listen to a panel talk about, of all things ....drugs!  We went because one of the...

T is back with his gf.  I did say I wondered how long it would last.  Maybe this was the wake up call?  Whatever.  Teenage drama is so exhausting......always when there is a girl in the...

Wow - Somethings aren't always like they seem.  T gave me a difficult time about going to tutoring, thought he was manipulating by telling me he's depressed, but there was something more going on...

Okay -  It's a great day.  Got up this Sunday morning, took T to his math tutor at 9AM, on the way home he told me that he and the tudor set up an after school tutoring session!, I made a big...

I am learning.  I think I really am.  Yesterday was a bit hairly because T decided he didn't want to go to treatment for the entire 3 hours.  He still wasn't "feeling well" and told me on the way...

Things seem to be going well.  I know that T has his moments but he seems to be working through it.  Thankfully, he has his girlfriend, helping him to stay grounded, along with AA and his wonderful...

I know, I know...... I shouldn't have allowed it but I did.  T wouldn't get up this morning, claiming he's too tired.  Being tired is no excuse but when I called in, the attendance lady suggested...

T continues to do well (aside from trying to catch up in math).  He started a landscaping job yesterday (working for his girlfriend's dad) and seems  to like it.  It's his very first "real" job,...
