[QUOTE="Feeling Sad, post: 705352, member: 19245"] Copa, I actually told my middle son that I couldn't take it anymore at that very discussion. He was telling me, yet again, that he was not sure what was going to happen to him. I told him, "I can't take it anymore. I keep telling and begging you to see a doctor and get help. You won't go with me to see one. You won't see a doctor up there. What else can I do???" He answered, "Mom, normally when someone is saying that they are suicidal, you don't get mad at them. You are kind and supportive"... Then I felt scared that I had taken a misstep and quickly changed my demeanor. I think that the problem is that I grew up in Sherman Oaks and took stupid Cotillion and etiquette courses... My mom only swore once. She was driving us all back from our piano lessons and we were being somewhat rowdy in the back of the station wagon. She said, "Will you damn children be quiet?" Then she quickly said, "Pardon my French". Even in elementary school, I knew that damn was not French. Mais, non! But, my schiztophrenic sister threatening my life quickly took "The Donna Reed Show" off of my personal primetime...to be replaced by "The Outer Limits". Note- younger readers will have to Google "The Donna Reed Show". I actually ran into Tom Peterson down at the A&W Root Beer Drive-in in his big Cadillac. Boy, was he conceited! Note- drive-ins.
