This is hard,I know cause ive been there….like your daughter my son comes from a loving family…as soon as I knew him and his GF were doing drugs I gave them an ultimatum…they ignored it, so I contacted SS….a hard decision but one I had to make..social services worked with both of them and thankfully the situation became far better…they split up for a while,but remained friends and worked hard at their parenting.throughout all of it, I have supported…unfortunately my son is working to stop drinking.cause when he drinks ,drugs become involved….I don’t enable, and if he has a relapse he can’t see his child…it’s so hard, but your grandchild deserves to be safe…..can I just add, I use to think perhaps it was my fault, but there are plenty of kids who don’t do drugs…it’s the individuals choice….what I’ve learned is unless the addict really wants to get better, then the blame will a,ways fall in others.stay strong and hugs xx
