[QUOTE="DesparatelyAfraid, post: 666307, member: 19509"] he has already had conversations with the police when he tried to run away twice before. Those were times when he actually left the house. This last time, we 'caught' him before he left the house (the house where we were vacationing, far from home). he gets very polite with them and then starts dropping philosophers' names as in asking the policeman "have you ever read Hegel?...[or Kierkegaard, or any number of others]" he actually seems to be hurting deep inside. At least that has been the overwhelming sense i get from him. he used to say things like that and i think that he is still hurting/miserable. He is grasping at these philosophies as a self-medication. Today, when i asked him for the probably the 6th time over the past 6 months, if he would consider trying prescription drugs to help him feel less miserable, he said, again 'no!' ...but this time he added that if he was going to try drugs, he'd just try heroin because at least that would be interesting.
