[QUOTE="asldogs, post: 434168, member: 12055"] It has been two days since my son moved out. I still feel so sad... it feels like being in mourning. I've lost who he was prior to 8 months ago and I mourn who he is becoming now. I mourn our relationship will probably never be the same again. It feels permanent to me, but suspect he thinks it's only a few weeks. I keep wanting to go into his room to clear it out and make it into a home office which desperately need. But each time I open the door, I just can't seem to do it, yet. I kept looking for signs of any drug or alcohol use but never saw any evidence until this last week before he moved out. I wonder if there is some type of new pill kids can get a hold of that is a subtle high without any obvious symptoms or behaviors? He never has any money, so if he was using a drug, he paid for it in some other way. An interesting side story: the police officer friend who talked with my son on move out day, made a deal with us that he needed to make sure his buddy's family called me by today. I told the the officer I didn't have any information about who this family is or a contact number. Well, the mother called me last night at 10pm while I was in bed reading, I didn't recognize the number and decided to let them leave a voice mail message. I found the message to be quite interesting. Female deep slow tone voice: "I am _____mother and he said I am suppose to get a hold of you for some reason...so... call me back, I guess... bye." She obviously had no interest in talking to me but felt obligated to call. I don't understand how this family can take in an 18 year old, his 2 storage tubs of stuff, guitar and skate board and not be curious to talk to his parent. Even if my son painted a nasty picture of who I am, wouldn't you want to at least touch base with the parent? I have not called her back. I have the number now in case of emergency, so I don't really have anything to say to her. Whatever I would tell her about what these two have been up to, she most likely would blame my son or deny they could have done that.
