Enabling Addiction

I was involved in a conversation with another Mom recently about her son’s and my daughter’s addictions.  We came to the conclusion that we both suffer from “enabling addiction”.  It’s that mother thing that Olivia spoke so eloquently about.  As we all know it is very difficult not to “help” your loved one who is suffering with addiction.  Since nothing else has worked, I have finally realized that making it too easy for my daughter to live this way is not the best way to help her after all.  Along with my prayers for my child and for all who live with addiction, I also pray for all of us to find the strength we need to get through this.
