[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 738669, member: 18958"] As far as the predation. Yes. That is common. Some prisoners will identify those who might be vulnerable. And attempt to extort money from family members. Or to frighten the prisoner into surrendering what he has, even food. Yes. This happens. Your son knew this going in. He must simply say no to all of it. And trust nobody. Until the truth emerges. It is no different in the rest of life. I was vulnerable too at first. Predators try to identify weaker staff too. You learn to protect yourself. Not by meanness but by being conscious. They try to compromise you by a small thing. And then when they do to graduate to bigger things. But the thing is, we need to keep our noses clean. This is son's learning. You cannot do it. He is too old. It is this son is not doing enough in life. My son either. Oh. I have a mountain of hurt I carry in me. But I see I cannot live by either fear or hurt. I have done so too long. Just remember we are here. You are never alone. [/QUOTE]
