[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 715567, member: 1233"] Cheerwyn, I am usually the blunt one on the side of "do the right thing and let the chips fall where they may", also on the side of tough love. It takes one heck of a lot for me to advocate absolutely NOT talking to her son and reporting this teacher. Both of my parents are retired teachers and I was raised to believe strongly that they should be held to a very high ethical standard. Sadly, the risk of loss of life here is all too real. Ferb's father and uncle both committed suicide. Ferb has tried to commit suicide. He is very much under the power of this woman. We know that the brain of a teenage isn't developed yet. It is very much stuck in black and white thinking and it perceives things more intensely than an adult brain. This is just science. Combining these things with any pressure from Pigless to end the relationship, or even any perceived pressure over the relationship, could have disastrous results. Ferb is truly a young man poised on the brink of a yawning abyss. Pigless needs to be ready with the rescue team, not worried about how to push him over. She can deal with the teacher after she is sure her son is stable. As a parent, Ferb MUST be her first priority. [/QUOTE]
