[QUOTE="PiscesMom, post: 705171, member: 19889"] I don't know. He is supporting himself. I don't know if he is shunning his family, or just growing up, and visiting less than mom would like. I also don't know what is meant by drug using friends. It all could be fine, and the perspective belongs to whoever is doing the telling. All this behavior is pretty normal to me - most of the young men in my extended family use marijuana (nothing else) recreationally, and have dropped in and out of school, while being independent. They are good kids. Yes, he could have serious problems, or he might just be figuring out life. So worry at this point is useless, and could cause distance. If mom is ok with it, communication is open - and if mom takes a hard line, you get lies. And yes, I could be totally wrong. I often am! Either way, both have suffered a huge loss and likely are both in mourning. [/QUOTE]
