Twice in the past two weeks difficult child has told me about some things at school that have me concerned. Both times it seems he handled them well but it is still scary to me.
First he said some guys from school offered him some crack. He told them no. He told me that we had already had one relative in our family die from drugs we didn't need another (husband's brother died from a cocaine overdose 3 months before difficult child was born but we have told him the story many times).
Yesterday he told me that some guys asked him to join their gang. He also told them no. Both times he said he told teachers about it.
I'm very proud of him but I sure do worry because he is so easily swayed. Sigh...
