Ask the Counselor . . .

by SUSAN LAUTZ. LPC
 
Dear Susan:
I have been friends with a lady since we were in middle school. We both experimented with drugs and drank while underage, but after that, we took every different paths. I sobered up, finished school, got some job training and have been supporting myself pretty well for the last five years. My friend dropped out, stayed in the drug scene and has been in jail on a possession charge. Before she went to jail, she begged me to take her six-monthold son so he wouldn’t go into foster care. None of her family was willing or able to take him.
