[QUOTE="ck1, post: 86442, member: 3767"] Nola: I just went back to read some of your previous posts. I can only imagine how hard this must be for you and I'm so sorry for that! You've been practicing touch love and, in my opinion, that's what you need to continue with. You've obviously done lots of things right, otherwise, he wouldn't be contacting you to let you know he's ok. Don't second guess yourself about not looking for him, you followed your instincts. You've done that before and it didn't help. If he refuses to live at home and follow your rules, what more can you do? Are police still looking for him? If they are, then they really should be able to find him sometime. He is in violation of probation, so it would be good if they could find him and bring him back to the detention center, preferably for an undetermined amount of time. Just let him sit in there and wait, that may have more of an effect than the 15 days. My difficult child ended up sitting in the detention center for five weeks. It was awful! To be honest, his "crime" really didn't warrent to be held that long anywhere, however, I think it helped him, that's what he says. We'll see when he comes home. I'm so sorry for your mommy heart...
