he comes from a very abusive home. Although he and my daughter broke up, we still continued to help him. I grew to love this kid like he was my own son, and he started to make tremendous steps. I got him back in school, we got him out of his house, to his grandmothers, etc. Then his mother came back into the scene, and made all these false promises. Now he won't speak to us. He is in the process of getting a tatoo that his mom is going to pay for, even though he is 16. And of course I found out she has been getting drunk with him. She has a big drinking problem so she is going to drag her son down the tube with her. What should I do?

Understand the best thing you could of given him was purpose. Not follow god, not be your own man, not live life hard, die young like his mom. Its not about giving someone there own purpose, but about allowing them to join yours. Which is what family is about. Chances are you lost him over this fundemental fact, he never was yours to help. Not to say you treated that way, or want'd to, but the subconicous well always feel one thing, when the conicous is away saying another thing all together. But the fact is the one who holds his collective purpose (family) holds all the cards to his salvation. Next time realize that. I've lost a few because of this fundemental fact myself.... the only way to do something like this right, is all the way to the grave, unfronatunely our society doesn't even think thats right for our own kids, well pay for it in the long run thou....
