[QUOTE="slsh, post: 433243, member: 8"] Thanks, guys. I found my footing (again, LOL) over the weekend. He is going to do what he is going to do and nothing we say is really going to make a difference. We can't prevent a Cookie type scenario any more than Cookie could prevent it. thank you is honest to a fault and would probably give recruiter the whole list of drugs he's done over the years. I don't think he's using right now, but who knows. He hasn't been on medication since right before he hit 18, has received no therapy or treatment or anything. Does have an arrest as a juvie, but it was ?deferred? so long as he stayed out of trouble until he hit 18, which I believe he did. No GED or diploma. Serenity prayer, and realization that if I could "fix" things, it would've been done about 18 years ago, LOL. Does no good to wring my hands (I seriously need to embroider that on a big old tapestry for my living room wall!!). If the military takes him, it's his and their problem. I'm really pretty confident he will be more than forthcoming about his past. Thank you again for holding my hand in the midst of yet another moment of panic! [/QUOTE]
