Now you're trying to control my prayer? lol I am praying for your son, you, and his father. A boy really needs a father figure, and the absence of his father is a big problem, as well as when a father is physically present but either abusive or emotionally unavailable. So the presence or absence of a good male role model and bonding with a father figure is an important factor. As far as the prayer for him,,, I don't tell God what to do,,, I humbly ask God to work things out His way. I also believe prayer works,, not like a magic way to get what I want,, but a way to tune in to God's Will and be a channel of His grace. Step 11 - 'praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.'
love in recovery,
amanda

The ABSENSE of my son's father is a BLESSING, sweetheart... don't kid yourself that you know what's best or wrong with my son. YOU do not have a clue, so don't go there, you're treading on dangerous ground, my friend.....BTW; He has 2 or 3 wonderful male roll models......If you wish to be HELPFUL in your prayers, then please pray that his dad hits his bottom soon and becomes desperate, so that he will seek help before it's too late........ it works if you work it....
