I was able to lie my way out of house hours later and called police now hes in jail and may be (stong chance)going to prison on 3 felony charges and is begging me to drop felony charges other people who know and Love him tell me to let it happen and I just dont Know what is best way

Dear dad,
I know that the last few years have been really rocky. Im only 14 and I have my entire life in front of me. I sure don’t feel 14, in my opinion… I have been put through way more than an average teenager. I may be young, but im not oblivious. At 12 years old I found another side to my perfect dad that I had looked up to for so, so long. From day one you were someone I wanted to be like someday. You could put a smile on my face, make me laugh, you were an all around perfect dad. Now im not saying we we’re perfect, because we weren’t. But that day, two years ago… made a huge impact in our relationship. I think you and I both felt our world shift, or at least I did. The day I found the pot in your car, I changed. You might not have been able to tell, but I could and many people around me could. I was depressed, and had absolutely no one to turn to. When I was dropped off at school at 7am, I would walk over to the church and pray until 7:40. I would pray that somehow you would see through the addiction. I was so depressed, I considered suicide. I would lay in bed, for god knows how long thinking how much easier life would be with out me. I wrote goodbye letters and I would tell myself to wait another day, that maybe JUST MAYBE you would change.

“It’s not affecting anyone but me”, is what you told me when I found your pot. But it does affect everyone around you. It effects me, Blake and Luke, mom, your parents, everyone around all of us. And more importantly it MAJORLY affects you. Marijuana is really, really dangerous and ISNT okay, for anyone. I would NEVER, EVER try drugs because I have seen the horrible side effects daily. Maybe at first… it was your escape, your way to forget everything that is happening and let go. Well this ‘escape’ has turned into a habit. I had constantly argued to you about how you don’t care about me, I still have doubts. I wish that I could change you, but a person can only change if THEY want to. As hard as EVERYONE tried to get you to open your eyes and REALLY SEE what you had. An amazing wife, three children, you had EVERYTHING in the palm of your hands. I thought that if you loved me enough, one day you would stop. Stop, and never go back to the habit. Obviously it wouldn’t be easy. That’s for sure, but maybe just maybe if you could take the struggle and turn into a goal I could have my dad back. I miss my dad. I really, really miss him. I wish you missed me enough to stop smoking, to stop drinking, to be a responsible parent, and to stop sleeping every second you have downtime. Love is stronger than any addiction. You’ve already lost mom because of this, do you really want to loose me? I don’t want to be 15…16…17…30 and wonder what life could’ve been like. What ifs; are not a choice anymore.

•What if my dad had never starting smoking? We can’t rewind time.
•What if my dad had broke through this addiction because he didn’t want the family to crack? Too late.
•What if my dad really, really made a strong effort to put his kids, his family ahead of his addiction? There is still time. But im not going to wait around for 20 years like mom did. If I don’t mean enough to you NOW for you to change, why wait to see in 20 years if I mean enough?

I love you, and I want you to know that. Our relationship is crumbling. And if you AND I don’t work at it, there’s not going to be anything left. i want my dad to be there when I get married, I want him to walk me down the aisle and give me away. I WANT to mean more to you then marijuana does. I really, really want to because I hate seeing you depressed, and not yourself. Honestly, I don’t know what marijuana does to people physically. But I’ve seen what it does emotionally. I’ve seen our family crash and burn. I’ve heard you and mom screaming. This ISNT ONLY AFFECTING YOU! I want my dad back. When I say “him” or “my dad” I mean, the person that doesn’t have a drug addiction. I mean the parent that I used to know, the one that my mom married thinking you’d be together until death. I haven’t seen him, if I have… I don’t remember. Maybe, I was too young… Im not saying that I want you to be perfect, NO ONE is perfect. But this, the life I once LOVED has turned into turmoil. I really want us to be close like we once had. Im tired of feeling like I have to hide my feelings and bottle them up and be in denial. I know the problem here, and I want you to make a change. Make a change for YOURSELF. You’re stronger than ANY addiction and God will help you through any obstacle you hit. I know that you want to be closer with me. So Dad, here I am completely open to starting over. Can you stop and HONESTLY stop using pot, NO sneaking around, not sleeping during your free time? Because Dad, that’s ALL I need, Im ready to make a change because I want my dad. If you want this relationship to work, you have to put 150+% into it this time. Do it for all those who didn’t think they could pass up an addiction. And… do it for me
And… do it for me, because I love you and I want to be proud of you, and look up to you like I once did.

•And remember….

I love you,

Dear YA! What do you think about my letter? Is it worth trying? Would YOU change?
how dare any of you who have answered saying that its ‘not that bad’. my dad ISNT THE SAME PERSON HE WAS, HE WAS RECONIZED IN OUR LOCAL MALLS PARKING LOT HIGH AND DRUNK. HE DIDNT REMEMBER A THING. HOW DARE YOU.

Just before i say anything, this is for my wife who is ill and has a license for it. She loves chocolate, and I wanted to make some chocolate for her. Is there anyway that I can do so. I have a sandwich grill, I was thinking of grinding half a gram up and put it in between 2 pieces of chocolate where the buns go. Im not really familiar with cooking, but I would like to know if it will activate the good chemicals with the grill?

If you guys have any recipes im open for suggestions.

My wife has overdosed and abused prescription medication multiple times. Our 14 month old baby boy isn’t safe at home with her. How do I protect him legally from her???

My husband has 2 children from his previous marriage. He and his ex have been divorced for 7 years and they each have always claimed 1 child on their taxes. My husband claims the older child and she claims the younger. For the past year or so the ex-wife has become more and more consumed by her crack addiction. We now have full custody but didn’t for 2006 even though the kids were primarily with us. We have always paid for all their clothes, school supplies, etc b/c she is frequently jobless. It doesn’t appear she filed taxes for 2006, so can we file an addendum to our taxes adding the younger child? Thanks for any assistance.

My wife was prescribed percocet 5/325 for a torn rotator cuff. She has never taken it before, and finds the dosage a bit too strong. Can she just split the pill and take half? It’s not a time release or anything.

When discussing his relationship with his wife, Travis says, “I have this very strong sense of commitment and tranquility.” Researchers have suggested that the neurophysiological basis of this feeling may be due to brain chemicals related to drugs. Are these feelings related to cannabinoids (cannabis), Cocaine-like neurochemicals, opioids (heroin), or Alcohols? Support with a source.

My wife is a meth addict I left her and took our sons because she is was using and would not even admit to having a problem. I have found her pipes and other evidence of the drug use. So after I left she said she was clean and doing well so I let her start taking the boys again, Well she comes to drop off our sons and we get into an argument and I tell her to leave. As she is leaving she threatens to burn my house down and I lock myself and our sons in the house and call the police and she starts to hit and kick my doors and windows. The police come and said she didn’t commit a crime. I know I don’t and won’t return the kids into her care but is it enough for a restraining order in California.

My question is regarding if I should butt-in or not. My B.I.L. is married with 3 children. His wife works while he stays at home with the kids. The problem is, he is a crack addict. He didn’t start this until he was expecting baby #1…really strange if you ask me but, anyway. My husband (his younger brother), my MIL, FIL and myself busted him pawning stuff that he steals out of their home (including their wedding bands!!!) He has fallen asleep many, many times while the kids were both infants (they are 11 months apart) and the neighbor had to break-in to wake him up. He said they were crying for over 3 hours! His wife is aware of his addiction but, she won’t tell him to stop because last time she told him that, he left her while she was 6 months prego. My MIL refuses to acknowledge that he even has a problem. Recently, my SIL was telling me that they go to my in-laws and “shop”. They go over there and take what they want out of their house! My hubby won’t speak to them at all.

I did not know this until a few minutes ago.

My wife became addicted to precocet. She reduced her dosage slowly down to half a pill. She has decided to quit the medicine altogether, but is having severe chills and heat flashes. Does anyone know how long these will continue?
My wife was prescribed percocet after an operation and after 3 weeks stopped taking it since no longer needed for pain. We found out she became addicted and she started taking it again but in reduced amounts and 3 days ago started taking half a pill. 18 hours ago she decided to no longer take any more medicine. She is currently having severe cold chills. Does anyone know how long these symptoms may last since she wasn’t addicted very long? When she told her doctor, all he said was to continue taking reduced dosages until she was off them.

My wife just got home from work (She works 8PM-3AM, it is 4 AM) and she told me that she found Cannabis (marijuana) in our 16 year old sons bed room when she was cleaning it out yesterday before work. We are both infuriated at him! We don’t know what to do though, if we call the cops, we lose him. If we ground him, he will just find something else to do, or sneak out. We don’t want him to do either, but we don’t want to ignore this as well. What should we do?
Were I live, if I called the cops on him, they would take him away from us, put him in Juvenile hall, for a few months, then put him in a foster family, we wouldn’t get to see him any more.
Zanneh,

She was cleaning his room, so that way it doesn’t look like a pig sty when we have guests tomorrow, we trusted him, we don’t go into his room “snooping” around.
He gets passing grades (b’s, and a’s), never gets in trouble, never talks back, does what he is told to do. We are absolutely shocked that he is doing this! Its just not like him.

after she stopped puking. then laughing and then called the Center for Disease control. She checked me into rehab for obvious addiction to crack w h o r e s. Got really drunk then slept a football team. then stiil left me cuz my pecker fell off thanks Slippery oh yea the question sry was my wife right to do that ?
