Cindy on Sentencing

Three to four years ago my son got involved in drugs and was arrested twice. The first time he was arrested, we bailed him out of jail but the second time we told him he had to finish his six month prison sentence. His biological father was a drug abuser and an alcoholic, so clearly this is genetic. He couldn't get help! Jail or rehab were the only two choices. The classes he goes to are incredibly expensive. They cost $70+ a week and he can't find a good job because of his record. Even the meetings with his probation officer were not helpful until he found one that cared.
