Hi,
I really need to vent a bit, had a frustrating day yesterday. I am usually in the Substance forum, but I think this goes here.
I have never posted about my other two children. I have identical twin boys almost 17. They have witnessed their older brothers choices and have had to endure his reputation..they are not Difficult Child children.
One plays in a competition band, the other plays lacrosse..they value family, and have been very close to us this past year. We have been very honest about our boundaries with Brother and they have a first hand education on addiction..so this leads me to my Friday.
I was prepping a pan of Lasagna, ( I dont know why that's relevant) when a parent and his son came to our door. We know this family, sons don't really hang with this friend hardly at all as they have different interests. He tells me he caught his son smoking pot..okkk, then says that hes not mad at my children but son says he got it from my twins? Um okkkkk, through their OLDER BROTHER!
I will say that Thank God I work in Ministry, cause I almost lost my mind. Umm, mind racing, pill not going down. They havent set eyes on their brother since he left our home, ( a month) Kid says he asked for it and they got it and passed it to him...the holes in this story are huge gaps.
Not the point..so we calmly test our children, they are clean ( duh), have never done drugs and are afraid of cigarettes. Their best friends brother was killed over a drug deal ( only murder ever in our town).
So they have been thrown under the proverbial bus...I am mad as a wet hen! My twins are like "what the heck"?
Here's my question..they prayed for this kid to get right and tell the truth, they are hurt. My husband does not feel we should go and tell the family that our kids are clean, boys father said they are not mad at our boys but his etc...etc..do we leave this? what if kid keeps using? do we let nature take its course???
We did contact older son....different forum for that update..luv to you all, Thks
