[QUOTE="virginiabreeze, post: 473142, member: 13069"] Thank you Buddy for the good suggestions. I actually 'watch' a DWTS with/for my Mom - just to have something light to talk with her about. My sister is so alone right now. Her husband travels a lot for work. To pile on top of the stress of her daughter running away, my sister & her husband accepted a relocation and recently moved. My sister is so depressed - she says things that really worry me - suicidal sounding. One of my other sisters was so concerned that she called the police and asked them to check on her. That didn't work out too well - and now they aren't speaking to one another. It's just a mess - the entire family needs help - it's like they have fallen into a rabbit hole and no one can get out. The school can't help her - because they moved and are no longer in the school district - they asst. principal called the daughter in and told her she was no longer enrolled in the school district and that she is not allowed in school anymore. The police aren't much help - they told my sister to file a 'missing persons report'. My sister found out that her daughter moved in with a 'friends' family - but this family won't allow my sister to have any contact. And now, my sister thinks her daughter has moved in with-a boyfriend. I feel like every 'safety net' that you would assume would help or interviene somehow has let this family down - the school, law enforcement, and the other parents' who allowed my niece to stay with their family.
