Thank you for the support!

Well, I am grateful for the finding of this site.  My son is 31, never been in any trouble his whole life.  He had a drug problem back in 2011. He came to the realization of a problem and asked for help. He entered a rehab and did very well and has not had a problem since.  Unbeknownst to us he had traded one addiction for another one. He is married with three small children.  We love his wife and of course our grandchildren. She does not work outside of the home and takes care of the children. Two weeks ago he posted a add on Craig's list and arranged a meeting with an under age child.  The arrangement was with the FBI.  He was arrested immediately and has been there ever since.  This has devastated the entire family. His wife has to move. She is coming to my husbands and my home with the kids.  His little brother of 21 is angry.  His father and I are scared.  He admitted childhood sexual abuse by a distant relative  to us last year and we asked him to get help.  He said he would and never did.  We believed him.  Now we are in this nightmare and are very scared.  I want so many things.  I want my son to be alright. I want to know my part in this nightmare. I want my son to get help.  Thank you all in advance for any mental help you can give me.  I know this is a long hard road but I will not give up on my son.  We love him very much.

  • Thank you everyone for the kind words and support.  My husband and I visited with our son today.  We will visit every Sunday, God willing.  Please continue to pray for us and I will pray for all of you and your sons.

  • Deanna, hand in there, this a hard road and yet so many miracles can happen for all of us if we let them.   Hugs to you, glad you are here. 

  • Deanna, I am so very sorry. Know that your son is still a good person with an addiction. He will need help, but in this country, we don't buy into a culture of help. Rather, we place our faith in the penal system. It makes about as much sense as riding a bicycle downhill backwards in the dark. It's bound to end badly. You are doing your part. You love your son and are supporting him. If you can, learn all the rules about visitation, rights, and the laws concerning his offense. I will be praying for you and your son.
