[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 628387, member: 17542"] Ramping up, JKF. They ramp up when we don't respond like they want us to. If you know where he is, can you send the police there since he is threatening suicide? To my mind, that is the only action I consider taking when difficult child does this. And he has done it several times. Not on FB but on the phone and especially via text to his dad, me and his brother. Calling the police has always put a stop to difficult child's suicide threats for a long while. One time he did superficially cut his wrists when his girlfriend broke up with him and then he texted all of us with the suicide threats. We took him to the ER and he went from there to the state hospital for a week. His dad and I have had long serious discussions about whether or not we believe he will ever actually kill himself or if he truly wants to die. We don't believe he will or he does, but we also recognize that we can't know what another person will do, ever. And since we can't walk by his side 24/7, this is something else we have to accept. Hugs, JKF. [/QUOTE]
