OK I guess I am becoming an old fogie.... but really todays youth culture is so different with all the stuff online etc!! Sometimes I think it is just going to drive me nuts.
So yesterday I see all this stuff on FB that has me very very concerned about difficult child. Dark stuff. Sounding suicidal, sounding like he is cutting and also homeless. I am trying not to panic. I have no idea what I can do if anything. I emailed my friend in Denver this morning wondering if I should try to call the homeless youth program out there but suspecting they wont tell me anything anyways. I did sleep last night but everytime I woke up I would check to see if difficult child had left me any messages. My husband is away and so I am stewing by myself. I am managing but feel haunted.
So my friend called me this morning and was a great voice of reason. She asked me if he could be posting song lyrics!! Oh yeah... is this where I can oh koi!!! He has done this before, I have learned this before that the darkest most poetical stuff is usually song lyrics... and oh that would explain why some of his fb friends "liked" what he posted. I have no idea why that thought did not enter my head????
So I went on line and the worst stuff is song lyrics!!! She also talked me about the services in Denver and help me feel in general reassured that this is another one of his drama things.
I am still worried about him but a little calmer this morning. Another friend suggested I stop looking at FB which is a suggestion I make to others...lol.... but since it is my only means of communication with him I dont think I can do that... but man oh man I have to keep things in perspective.
