[QUOTE="JaneBetty, post: 707806, member: 20814"] Lost, I experienced many of the same anxieties when our daughter had to leave our home last August. I worried that she would be preyed upon and let myself imagine all the worst that could happen. I would go drive around our town looking for her car when I had a lead on her whereabouts. It has been almost six months now, and though I know she is still in town, I don't know where she is living, and she seems to have a boyfriend, just looking at her facebook page. My advice to you is to manage your fears as best as you can. In time, you will stop worrying so much, and even though the problems might be the same, your reaction will be more tempered. You've taken the first step by going away for some peace and normalcy, and it sounds as though you have drawn a line by not responding to your son's communications. Like SWOT said, your son is a man. He needs to start acting like one. It's okay to want a break, your body and your psyche can only take so much. [/QUOTE]
