    Hello c:

    Of course, not. Why would you want to cause your boyfriend trouble? If he needs HELP, then he should GET help. But, the PO is NOT there to HELP him. He's there to BUST him.

    Hello again, charla:

    No, getting him busted will imprison him. There's no help in prison. There's only misery.

    You obviously have no idea what they do in prison or jail, there is no help, no programs, and there are drugs in prison for those who want them, so he will not even get away from his drug use there.

    The PO will not ( or even can not) add things to his probation to require him to get help.

    The only thing reporting him will do is send him to prison.
