Is it cruel to do all you can to keep a family member behind bars?
September 1st, 2010My sister is a drug addict and has been in trouble off and on all her life. She lives with my mother and her behavior, attitude and actions are killing her. she was arrested AGAIN Christmas Day. She has done the drug rehab thing twice; it never sticks with her. My brother and I are doing everything in our power to make sure she serves time this time around. Is that cruel? We love her but she is way out of control and our mother is paying the price for it.
I totally agree with what you are doing. GOOD LUCK!
Leave her where she is. It’s best for everyone.
she needs all the help she can get leave her there
Serving time is not going to solve the problem, but it may help her to realize that she has one.
Once she has discovered that she has a problem, then the rehab should be successful.
However, she needs to be unable to contact her dealer…if you can get that person put away you would be doing everyone a favor!
