[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 695047, member: 20054"] Oh Albie-I'm so sorry. Your hubs handled this so well... give him a big hug from us all! Also great answer. We too have come across such compassionate law enforcement people, they've heard it before. (I'm sure they heard it at 2am at my house after we had to call them to remove drunk/drugged angry, violent son) I sat on front step crying, telling officer how sorry I was as they wrestled him to ground to handcuff and take to 72 hr detention-awful to experience in every respect and all I could do was wonder how in the world we ended up there? Leafy's right, and every time it's hard. I thought "the not putting up with nonsense" would get easier but it hasn't for us, not easier but more routine. It is parallel-once (once again) our son was taken to jail the night before we were supposed to leave for vacation, DUI, acting the fool....My hubby told officer " we leave for 1 wk for cabin in smokies tomorrow, and we're going. You can release him whenever, he can walk wherever...we are just so tired of it all" It wasn't a great time away, but we went and sometimes when I handed hubs that frozen drink with umbrella in it I thought do we drink to forget that he does? I too find it weird that your son was on FB, even had $20 on him, he got robbed but they left him a twenty?....did you wonder if it was really a deputy or just a scam? It's so crying wolf over and over, isn't it? How to know the truth? [I]Our truth[/I] is that it doesn't matter, true or not, we have to respond the same way for their good and our own. Be gentle with yourself today. You are a good mom. Prayers. [/QUOTE]
