[QUOTE="worried sick mother, post: 696774, member: 19069"] I'm so glad to hear that went well. I'm always worried about what to say too so I just don't elaborate and always dread the question. I try to just be happy for others about the success of their children and not compare my son. The not comparing is the difficult part. Even comparing the differences in out parenting trying to figure out where I went wrong. It's even worse though when your close friends don't even ask about your son and stop talking to you very much and you think that's probably why. My very best friend has hardly talked to me at all since I found out about my sons drug use and did an intervention. When we do talk she never mentions my son. She also has shared many post on Facebook about avoiding negative people and negative people sucking the life out of you. I may be wrong but I have a feeling those are directed towards me, maybe I'm just paranoid because that is pretty childish. I just hate that we are all in this terrible situation where we have to be in constant fear of even being ask a question causing us to avoid social situations. It's just so heartbreaking and unfair. Our children just don't realize it care how this affects us. I'm so happy you went Colleen and had a good time. Just remember everyone has skeletons in their closet. [/QUOTE]
