As mentioned in a note that wanted me to give it up I am going to do that as I think it is worn out and not much more to gain from additional input. As a parting point. Those families and children who may be suffering from someone in the family who is addicted..Please consider going to an al non meeting in The Villages. You can get the schedules by checking for schedules in the Internet. You will be more than welcome and I am sure you will receive great help in dealing with the person using drugs, or drinking too much. I guess if one
person ended up going to a meeting all of the time I spent writing to this thread would have been more than worth it.
