Tough Love
Thursday, October 18th, 2007In this article a mother expresses how she finally came to the realization that she had to stop bailing her drug addicted daughter out of jail. Fortunately it was a wake up call for her daughter who now attends 12 step meetings regurarly. 'Tough love' can be one of several effective treatment options.
Calling it "tough love," she added, "I knew if I bailed her out, she would do the exact same things she had been doing. If she was there, she couldn't get to the drugs. I knew she was safe. And it gave her time to think about what she was doing."
