I agree that he does need some sense slapped into him but there comes a time though, when taking charge isn't really going to do much at all. Speaking from experience, you can't take charge of someone who doesn't think their life needs taking charge of. Speaking from my personal experience with substance addiction, most of the time with someone at that kind of point basically one of the only things left to do is cut ties and try and throw them partially into a rock bottom (the rest they will do themselves). Being forced does jack all. I was forced to go to treatment 3 times and it did nothing for me until some pretty epic stuff happened and my circumstances and my self realization made something happen
