[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 136390, member: 3647"] Ya know, I didn't see any manipulation in that latter. A tiny guilt trip maybe, but not necessarily. He mentioned that it was hard to come back. Yes, it IS hard for him to come back. Kudos to him for being able to express that appropriately. He mentioned paying you back for the lip balm. That could be his guilt getting to him for accepting that guitar without eing as gracious as he could have. As far as the other kid at Residential Treatment Center (RTC), to me that sounded like him venting. Wherever he goes, for the rest of his life, there will always be someone that rubs him the wrong way. He will learn the skills to deal with that. Bottom line, he did say he missed you, but he asked you to bring this and that when you came (as though he needed them, as though he were still planning on being there awhile, and was comfortable with it) and signed it using your pet name for him. All in all, that was a very sweet letter. [/QUOTE]
