[QUOTE="nlj, post: 619877, member: 17650"] Just a quick update. I had a text and photo message from my son this morning. Massive beard! He looks like Sam Beam of Iron and Wine now (if any of you know that singer) haha. Sent me lots of love as usual. Says they are refusing to leave the farm squat and will wait and see if they are forcibly evicted. I went out for a pot of tea alone in a local cafe and just had a quiet think about the situation. I'm sad but getting more detached I suppose. He's alive and seems well anyway, says he's been reading and meditating a lot. Best wishes to everyone, I'm so much more 'together' since I've found this site. I've been reading my way through recent and old threads. I often feel guilty for having brought children into this world. When I think about it, it's quite a selfish thing to have a child and I never thought about the possible outcomes or struggles when I was looking at parenthood through rose-tinted glasses. Gurgling babies and happy families - that's the image that's sold isn't it? It's tough though in reality. [/QUOTE]
