[QUOTE="kennedyland, post: 590936, member: 16133"] I have another question. Has anybody been afraid their chemically dependent son or daughter will get physically violent? Has that fear come to pass with actual violence? Are there any signs that they might do something? After the awful texts we received from my son - one a month ago, and a second yesterday- she is afraid he might come over here and do something. He has not threatened any physical violence. Indeed, he hasn't made any threats at all. He's called her a couple of awful names, he says I am abandoning him (we are retired and moving this summer), and that I am ignoring his problems. But the anger, the insults, and the venom in those texts has my wife very concerned. I'll admit, the thought of him trying something desperate has crossed my mind. Again, there haven't been any threats, but the verbal (written) violence has been strong. Have you had similar feelings? How do you handle them? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
