[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar I, post: 49434, member: 3755"] Yep. That was a good answer, DDD! I like that everyone is taking these issues so seriously, too ~ especially whichever of us it was who brought up the car filled with too many people and the possibility of an accident. Also, what was easy child thinking to leave those plastic cups anywhere but in the trash? Or even, to put information about the concert on MySpace? Maybe she wants you to know she is getting in just a little too far over her head. I think those are the signals you should be seeing, Kfld. We missed all those "Help, I'm drowning!" signals with difficult child ~ probably because we wanted so desperately to believe he was fine. At sixteen, he was level headed, had excellent grades, was a great kid, was working, dressed well, and was responsible with his money. When the problems started, I just don't think we believed he would do what he did ~ not after everything we had all already been through with his sister. So, I would take this seriously, but I would handle it as DDD suggested. Barbara [/QUOTE]
