[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 669499, member: 18958"] Forgive me but first I want to say Hi to Insane Canadian. I did a search Insane because I had not seen you comment much in the last couple of weeks. I hope all is OK. I missed you, Insane. You are always on the mark, and so kind all the time. OK. Inthestorm. I do not know how to say this delicately so I will just say it: This is almost a crime, a terrorist threat. The only word that makes it almost is [I]should[/I]. Without the should, I have seen people get 4 years in prison. That you are his mother changes nothing. Nobody should say that to you, least of all your son. Second. This is as cruel as can be. Obviously it was a means to manipulate and hurt you. I agree with everybody else. Call the police every single time. Finally, your son has almost threatened to murder you and he has told you he is in the process of killing himself only to hurt and manipulate you. What is wrong with this picture? You are seeking tact? There is a truth here. Which is based upon the words and actions of your son towards you. Because of his conduct, his own choices, he needs to create his next steps. All of us have had to do the same thing. Eventually the only thing left to do is to take responsibility for the consequences of one's acts. Nothing else works. If indeed he chooses to kill himself, it will be a great sorrow. But that, alas, is a choice only he can make. My own child has refused to take medication he requires because of a mortal illness. This is a form of suicide. Slowly. There is not one thing I can do. There is no one alive who has not had disappointments. If they have not had, they soon will. Part of life is learning to either live with them or to surmount them. Your son has the opportunity to become a mature, responsible person. By confronting himself and his situation he may do so. Nobody else is responsible. There is a wise mother on this forum, Cedar. These are her words (paraphrased): Honey, I know this is hard. I don't know what you should do. But I know you can do it and I know you will. I love you. [/QUOTE]
