I have a 36 year old son who is married with one child. For about a year he has slowly sunk into the depths. His wife has kicked him out of the house. He now lives in his truck. She tells me he is drinking heavily and smoking crack/crank. He refuses to get help. My question is: Do you think I should report him to the police before he harms himself or an innocent person driving around like this. Thanks, Christy (link)

I think you should. Drug abuse isn't something pretty. If he doesn't snap out of it soon it could worse. You don't want to imagine the possibilities of it getting worse.

just warning you, this may get long!
last night me and my boyfriend of nearly 3 years were in my room and sleeping. not fooling around, literally sleeping. then my dad comes in and freaks out bitching like we had sex or something.
the situation is that i'm the only girl in the family and they treat me like crap. i do the dishes almost every night, take care of my sick grandma, do the laundry, clean the house, and do well in school yet they still look down upon me like i can't be trusted. i am a very responsible girl and i have had enough of them snooping through my room and checking up on me.
the only possible reason why i think they could be acting like this is that we don't communicate very well with each other, let alone get along. maybe bitching is their way of talking to me? even so, that doesn't explain the overprotectiveness!
my question is what can i do to make them trust me? i feel like i've done everything, all ending in failure.
i used to really HATE them for what they put me through, but when they made an effort to BE NICE things got better. our relationship has improved over the past two of months, but after what happened last night, my grudge against them has returned.
please help, i don't know what else i can do. it seems like nothing is ever good enough for them...

Sometimes parents make you feel like a failure because they want you to feel dissapointed that you let them down so that way you push yourself to do better when really theyre pleased with you. Asian parents are usually the most overreactant parents. You're 18? What are they freaking out about? You're legally an adult. I think you should talk to them about it. If they take it the wrong way then explain it to them. If they just keep yelling at you and stuff then just stop talking to them and wait for them to apologize. But probably wasn't very wise to sleep with your boyfriend when your parents are right there.
