Depressed from time to time due similar problems..
Like longer custodial sentences,
shorter non parole periods,
frequent blood tests (also part T&Cs for parole),
require work or study activity(also part T&Cs for parole),
swift breach if fail T&Cs,
with lots hope they last long enough to decide and find a safer, less custodial lifestyle to live and enjoy.
Is a big problem…
Am getting to old to care for more grandkids

Thanks for the kind wishes, we are here, he is eating and resting. Impacts on the family are the last area of concern for social policy.
It is beyond anger, just wanting him to stay alive now. His polluted lungs will take him away before the Hep C kicks in.
At heart he is a gentle but damaged soul. Funny but when your child is a criminal, the last speck of parental vanity is that he is a non-violent offender.

I wish you well Rhonda.I wonder if your son appreciates the agony you are going through?Tell you what ,I’d give him an earful.To be an arrogant drug addict says that he is not ready to learn.Be loving ,but also be tough.He has a choice,it is either death by drugs,or life by will power and courage.There are no grey areas of twilght indulgence.
