Anyone know laws and rules concerning people in drug rehab?

My son has a dead beat dad who is in drug rehab. He got arested in Dec 05 and was having withdrawl problems in jail, so they sent him to a rehab. If he was not in rehab, he would be in jail, he is awaiting trail for 7 felony charges. He has all the sudden decided to take an interest in my son, I don’t want my son to see him but I have an outstanding court order from before he went to jail that states he gets supervised visits everyother weekend. I was not worried about this since he was put away, but I have found out that he gets weekend passes and I have to let him see my son on his weeks. Does anyone else see anything wrong with someone who should be in jail, awaiting trail for 7 felony charges, getting out on the weekend and being around a 2 yr old child? I don’t see how he should get out? I have a lawyer and we are going to court to get his visits suspended but I need help now, he is to get out for his first visit next weekend. Does anyone know anything I can do to stop this?
For any of you who say that he is his father and deserves to see him~ let me tell you one reason I don’t want this~ once, he was on his way to pick up my son for his visits and got pulled over, he ran from the police and when they cought him, he had a loaded, stolen gun, oxicotin, and two baggies of meth. ON HIS WAY TO PICK UP MY SON!

How do you know if you’re an alcoholic?

I went to an AA meeting because I was required to for a court thing. I am trying to decide whether it is for me or not to stay in it. I’m not sure if I’m an alcoholic or not, but I did enjoy the meeting. I know sometimes I drink, but I always make sure it doesn’t affect any other apect of my life like work or school. Should I just keep going either way and see how I feel about it?
I had to go for a wet wreckless. .08 (but, i have done everything else required of me). And I certanily learned my lesson in a big way.

My girlfriend wants to know how she can get out of going to court required AA meetings?

She has been sober for 10 months.
She has been on probation for a while. She went to some counselor and she assigned her more stuff based on assessment. She is doing fine without all of it. They are just making her do extra stuff. It is not even what was originally assigned. Probation is over in 8 months and they said she has to go to 3 AA meetings a week for 3 years and one year of after care. She has been out of treatment for a year now.

I need to know about requirements to work in a drug rehab center?

Because of a friend’s drug addiction, I have recently decided to have a career in a drug rehabilitation.

I’ve wanted to be an RN for a while, but I’m sure there are other requirements to work with patients in drug rehab centers.

I don’t really need to know the actions of the people and what I’ll be dealing with so much as what the REQUIREMENTS are.

If you know of any links or have any advice, please let me know.
