[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 640792, member: 17720"] difficult child called us yesterday and left a message. He is still in the same spot. In the space of a few days he has changed his story from enrolling in truck driving school to getting a job in a nearby town to hitching back our way to attend college...and now he says he is going to California Monday via bus ticket purchased by his former girlfriend's mother, where he has a job waiting for him. His stories tend to bounce around a lot when he's on something. The thing is, I can feel myself caring less and less about it all, and I'm trying to decide if that's a good or a bad thing. I feel sorry for him because he is a prisoner of his addiction. But if he doesn't care...what's for me to care about? I'm in a very strange place right now, emotionally. Detached and detaching more, but wondering if I should feel bad about that. I don't feel bad, really. I just feel kind of...resigned to it all. [/QUOTE]
