[QUOTE="nlj, post: 651617, member: 17650"] Firstly. The boundaries are whatever you want to do. The boundaries aren't what everyone else tells you to do, or what the text books tell you to do. Secondly. The facts of the case. Were there any witnesses? Was he arrested and not the other person because he's the one that's dirty and smelly? Or was he arrested and not the other person because that was fair? ---------------------------------- Do you think the drugs came after the disillusionment with modern life, or the other way around? Is the mental illness a symptom of, or response to, his view of the world? Or was it there before? I'm really trying to understand my own son better. I haven't got any answers sorry, only questions. (I get the lunch on a bench, it's far less stressful. It's a lunch that's about you and him, not a lunch that's about the perceptions and opinions of the other people in a cafe. He obviously need to know that you are there, even if he can't cope with living up to what he maybe sees are your expectations for a civilised meeting. He's aware of his own limitations.) It's so hard. I feel like crying for him... and you. [/QUOTE]
