Hopefully they both will continue with counseling and that may have been one of the adoptive mother's concerns as well. I don't know how good he's been about staying with the programs they've tried so far to get him help. If he's been someone who goes and stops she may be worried that he'll meet with Cassie see their counselor once, drop it and have even more issues unresolved to deal with, who knows. Sometimes teenagers think there is a better solution than the hard road to take, an easier parent that will tell them what they want to hear, etc. I think Dr. Stan was kind of warning Cassie about that today. Dustin may be going through some tough love with his adoptive mother right now and it may be at the suggestion of his therapist, not just because she's a mean person. Cassie will need to respect what the therapists tell her about what Dustin needs to recover and become whole and not become an enabler in his life so that he will love her. That is not an easy thing to do especially when she so desparatly wants his love.
