[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 503887, member: 3305"] Pasajes4, I waited most of yesterday to see an update on your post. I am sorry I did not get to reply sooner. You are handling things with a tough love approach...you absolutely are doing the loving thing here though I know it likely goes against the grain of what "feels" loving and righti. Your son may be angry right now...he may want to think this is all your fault...but it is HIS behavior that got him to this place, not yours. You are protecting yourself and others. I know you will likely visit your son in Juvie. I hope when you do that you are armed with some well-thought-out phrasas to use in the situation cause I have little doubt that your son is going to try and make you feel guilty about his predicament. My son's have used WHATEVER will work to help them get out of a situation they didn't want to be in and the "mommy guilt card" got played often. I just wanted you to know I'm listening and here for you. You are brave and strong. You will get through this time and your son may end up truly truly learning some valuable life-long lessons here. My thoughts are with you, Hugs, LMS [/QUOTE]
