[QUOTE="nlj, post: 632878, member: 17650"] I'm so glad you saw your son and that you cried all the way home. Crying can be good sometimes, I find it really therapeutic and cleansing. To [I]not[/I] cry would have been strange and probably not healthy. I like COM's list of answers to give him, I would add "I'm sure you can work it out", I can't remember who suggested that one a while ago but I use it a lot now - it's supportive, sounds like you believe in them, but puts the onus on them. It's a new morning here, rainy and grey but never mind, a new day to do something nice. I hope you have a nice day today JKF. He's just worried about you and maybe doesn't know what to say or do. He's a man, give him a break (that's what H would say). [/QUOTE]
