[QUOTE="vligrl, post: 545867, member: 14003"] OMG Nancy. I could never allow myself the vision of my son dead, etc afraid it would actually happen. On the boy's FB page one of his "good friends" posted a picture he took of the boy holding up three quart sized baggies filled with pot as a picture he will cherish forever. Kids talking about how he was the "boss of Cali" as if that was a badge of honor.My heart aches for such a young person dying so senselessly, but am angry at everyone that contributed as well as himself for always having to push the limits. The family is having a service tonight at their church with their son's favorite pastor speaking to the kids and families that knew him. Since having a teenager, I have learned to dislike most teenagers of today with very little appreciation for anything especially their parents. This goes for my own child as well. For all the good schools we sent him to and good neighborhoods we lived in just to have him flunk out of high school and start drugs. For us to pay hundreds to go to summer school to get his diploma in time to go to Jr. College just to flunk out of that. We drove him to and from Jr. College to make sure he went to his classes for a solid three months for nothing. Now he wants to try again but the closest Jr. College is 40 minutes away with no public transportation to get there from here. That leaves it up to us to either help him again or say tough luck kiddo. Personally, I would like to get the heck out of here altogether and leave his "friends" and sad memories behind and move closer to a Jr. College possibly. I am very torn about helping him out. Calgon take me away! [/QUOTE]
