If you've ever paid your son's dealer to 'keep him safe' - this is for you.
Last year a Benoni mom paid R3 800 to stop her 22-year-old's dealer from 'making an example of him'. She thought she was saving his life. Really, she was paying someone to keep her son sick.
When she stopped, he finally felt the pain that pushed him into rehab.
True support isn't about preventing pain - it's about refusing to remove the consequences that create change.
Save this so you can spot your own enabling patterns before they cost another month of your loved one's life.
What's one 'help' you gave that you're now realising kept the addiction alive?
