[QUOTE="Star*, post: 409513, member: 4964"] mrsam- Thank you so much for -as Paul Harvey would say - "the rest of the story". I also believe your perceptions could be correct if there is more going on, but I do believe that an interesting read for you would be a book called Mapping co written by - Dr. Wilton Hellams. If for no other reason, the man has years of experience dealing with P's that are in prisons within prisons. His unique perceptions into the minds of P's at a young age and even in teenage years is quite keen. If there were possibly a change of direction for your nephew? Perhaps something in there would offer a viable line of communication for your family to seek. I still believe that anything is possible. I'm not an eternal optimist - I'm a realist who's optimistic, and prays constantly. I'm also very glad that you are now part of the family here. I believe that your search, and continued searching is a testament to the love you have for your family. To me it doesn't say you've written your nephew off - it says rather - I'm backing off - but I'm hopeful there is some rock I haven't turned over.
