[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 617700"] Thank you for posting. This hit home for me. My difficult child's was a easy child until he was out drinking as a college student and was physically assaulted - resulting in a concussion (his 3rd concussion and his head hit the ground so hard, he had a bald spot from the impact) and a serious eye injury that almost cost him his sight. We sent him back to school without knowing the full extent of the resulting injuries (and at his urging) at it was big mistake. The emotional impact and the social impact (he had a badly bruised face for his first month at school, he was now "that kid who got punched") led to him hanging out with the wrong people, spiraling into substance abuse and it changed him into a different person. Thinking back to my own college days, I can relate this to people I knew then as well. I hope this leads to better, higher levels of awareness AND intervention from a college life standpoint.
