Sounds like you have a game plan. I just hope Jason will realize how much he is loved and that this is being done out of love. Love is greater than all the drugs in the world, and I hope he realizes that too and puts forth the effort to stay clean.
Sending coping vibes for you and your daughter.
Peace,
Carl

As long as it takes, and he can go to more meetings on his own instead of just the minimum being required.

He won't get better without walking the walk on his own.

Amen brother.
All that policing, meetings, monitoring, checking up, etc. would never have stopped me from drinking. Users and abusers are a cunning lot (at least they think so). They always find a way.
He won't really stop until he's ready to stop!
Heck, I had the doc put me on antabuse once. It took 72 hours to get out of your system so I would stop taking it on Tuesday so I could drink on Saturday. What a joke.
There's a bottom down there somewhere. When he hits it he'll be ready to quit (or he'll be dead). Those are the only two decisions left at that point.
