[QUOTE="lovemyson1, post: 663983, member: 16643"] Hello UpandDown, I just read your story and I'm proud of you and your husband for following through. I totally get it when you second guess your decisions to press charges on your son. I am that way too. We love our children and in the heat of a situation, we are ready to turn them over to the police, but then are mommy/daddy hearts get mushy and tender when things calm down. My husband and I have battled these feelings for a long time with our son. It looks like he's accepting his diversion plan so that's great! Stay strong, I promise you, you won't be sorry. We've all been there and the sooner you learn not to enable the sooner, your son will have a reality check and face natural consequences. It's super hard to do, but the only way they learn. I hope things go well, you give him lotsa love and support and he makes the right decisions. [/QUOTE]
