[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 609200, member: 15801"] Hmmm I actually like it when good friends ask me about difficult child.... because I feel like I am such a broken record with so much bad news about him that I feel like I am boring.... so it feels good when people care enough to ask! And I am in general pretty open although it depends a lot on who is doing the asking. To some I just say he is still struggling but dont go into details. I recently came up with a line that I have not actually used, without finally telling them the real story but... the story is "He is studying criminal justice at X (the local community college which happens to be the same name as our county) and he is living with a bunch of guys in Y (the name of the town the jail is located in). So yes he is in jail and some in the know will laugh when I give them this explanation which is the truth .... of sorts. TL [/QUOTE]
