In this episode I speak with a mom about her 17 year old PDA son's substance abuse, as well as his near constant presence in the family living room and the impact this has on their household.
We talk through the mother's preference for her son to be home and physically safe -- instead of out and in danger, as he has been in the past -- and the cost of this for her and their family.
We discuss all of this in the context of the son recently earning his GED and wanting to get a job. I hope you find the conversation helpful.

Casey
