dua request....... please

I can't go into it as I would prefer not to post details. But please, as a mom I plead, dua's, prayers for my youngest.
His name is Michael. Something has happened.
He is not ill or injured.
But he is not using good judgement and I am scared his lack of good judgement will effect him more than he realizes.

This is very hard for me as he is 24 and I have no control and I don not think he is heeding my advice at this point. At this age you can't protect them by grounding them to their room. My heart is aching as I try to learn to let go and make myself realize I cannot protect him anymore, if he will not let me help.

Thank you

I want to thank you all for the prayers and the private messages of concern. Please keep up the dua's as he is coming around and starting to use better judgement in this situation. It's not over but he is dealing with it in a more mature manor.

Thank you my dear dear friends  :)

Sorry to dig up this old post but when people have things come up I always wonder how things went, figured many of you do to so here goes.

Thank God, all went well. It is over and past and no reprecusions ( I bet I spelled that wrong) My son went away with having learned a very important lesson and my son more humble. (Which he needed to be humbled and scared a little.

Thank you to everyone for your prayers, thoughts, words of encouragement and dua's. It is my hearts most sincere desire and wish that Allah reward all of you for your kindness and compassion.

(sigh) (wipes brow)  (another motherly sigh)   ;D  
one issue down
what's next   ::)

I am now going to share what happened cause it may help someone down the road. May times in posts on this board I have heard it may times...I was hoping my influence would help them to do better. I thought my love or my friendship and good influence would save them  
::)yeah right ::)  

Younger folks on the board PLEASEEEEEEEE take note.
No matter how bad you want to be a friend to anyone, no matter how much you think you can help or change someone,
pleaseeeeeee, if anyone is doing wrong in your presence run like mad in the other direction, guilt by association and such.
My son went with a co worker after work to socialize. The co-worker lit up a marajuana (not sure if I spelled that right) and my son did not smoke it but I guess the smell gets into clothes like if you are in the same room with a regular smoker. My son got pulled over on the way home not cause he was doing anything wrong but cause he had no front license plate. I kid you not I saw the police report myself. It was 8 pm, he had worked all day and was waiting for his wife to get off work. He had not eatten since breakfast he was cold, tired and hungry. When you are pulled over and there are such bright lights in your eyes what happens??? Your eyes water and the police did a sobrity test which my son past, guess the police officer smelled the marajuana on his clothes. He accused his of smoking and my son offered to go with him on the spot for any test he wanted blood, urine but he did not take him but called his wife to come get him. (during the sobriety test it was dark, night and 35 to 40 degrees and my son asked to get his jacket which the officer would not let him, shaking, cold and scared he did the tests and then the dumb cop asked him why he was shaking  ::)
My son has no qualms with telling me the truth about anything and often tells me more than I care to hear so I trust him, My husband and I went to get his truck (since his wife had to come get him the officer would not let him drive home.) On the cell phone I asked my son DID YOU SMOKE IT?
He said No Mom I did not. I told him have your wife turn around RIGHT NOW and take you to the nearest hospital, your insurance will not pay for it but I do not care PROVE your innocence. And they went right way and he passed. Plus when he went to work the next day he requested all his random drug screenings from his company WHICH HE HAD ALWAYS passed.
Went to court and he was not even on the docket (thanks and praise be to God) and when he asked I guess the police report was not sufficient to make any charges. Poor kid was looking forward to proving his innocence.
But he knows now to never stick around ever again. Who cares if you offend a co-worker.  ::)    (sighs....thinks to herself KIDS)
If someone is doing something wrong in your presense RUN, do not stick around.

I just read your post today, and Alhamdulillah, I'm glad things went well.

I pray that we would always be guided by God in all of our decisions coz  things can get hazy sometimes, even to the most objective of us.

Take care :)

Thank you Barr.
I just can't believe he stuck around when the guy lit up   ::)
But he had driven to the guys house in the guys car and left his truck behind. Later when the guy took him back to his truck that is when the police pulled him over for no front license plate (our state requires a back and a front.

I trust my sons cause he even tells me personal things I don't wish to hear and he comes to me about things which is a good thing. However even in trusting his word, he and my daughter-in-law showed me the copy of the police report and other documents. Plus when I talked to him on the cell phone to go get a drug test that night so he can prove himself he didn't hesitate to do so.

At least the officer was honest and in the report states my son was willing to go to a hospital and get a test. He asked him twice and my son agreed and my son even offered again during the situation but the officer would not take him. My son had NO BUSINESS sticking around and should of taken a cab back to his truck or called his wife or myself to come get him.
I believe this was a good and humbling experience for him.

What is really scarey my son told me only 2 people in his whole company (him and one other) that he knows of passes the ramdon drug tests. I asked him why they keep the others on and he replied, MOM if they fired all who failed there would be only us two to work and you can't keep a company in business with 2 employees   :o
I find this absolutely disgusting.
