text: I have a son who is/was a opiate addict, he came to me in withdrawals, I asked him if he wanted help and wanted to quit, I told him if he wanted help I would take him to hospital  if he just wanted to get high again I  would give hin  enough $$$ for a dose , and to not come back as It would kill him, he took the offer to get clean and went to the hospital, if he had not wanted help and to get clean I would just a soon him to die, (he is now 2 years clean) tough Love only thing that works ,,, quit playing with these people, get real, or let'em get dead. even in my won family I believe this and it works
