[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 696843, member: 17542"] Dawn, my son would dodge the jail bullet many times too. The jails are full, and they let them go, even when the attorneys advise they won't let them go. I don't know if this is good or bad, it just is. Before my son got a felony for selling drugs, I focused on his "record", his job, his remaining respectable parts of his life. I worried myself to death about all of that. Finally, I had to let all of that go. It really didn't matter. Once, my precious parents wanted to bail him out of jail and pay the $200 so he could keep the job he had just gotten---a good thing, right, getting a job?---the Friday before. I gently suggested they not do that. I hope your son sees this is a second chance to fly right. If he doesn't, don't despair. I think every situation, every experience is teaching them something that hopefully they will draw on later, when they are ready to walk a new path. [/QUOTE]
