[QUOTE="bran155, post: 200001"] I am so sorry. I know all too well what you are going through. My difficult child had 13 AWOLS in 3 months in her first Residential Treatment Center (RTC). They did nothing to find her. I know the worry, it stinks. It is so utterly frustrating to have to sit back and watch your child self destruct. I am in the same boat. I am SLOWLY learning to detach. It is very hard. I do get great advice and strength from my friends here. The support I get from the wonderful people on this board empower me. You sound a lot stronger than me at this point. I envy your ability to not engage. I am now working on that. "Hows the weather?" does sound pretty safe to me, however if your difficult child is anything like mine he will try to find a way to work off that innocent question. These kids should put their genius to good use. Hang in there. :) [/QUOTE]
