[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 690306, member: 18958"] In the house where my son has been staying off and on, the neighbors routinely tell M what is going on. Many of the neighbors are latinos, speak Spanish (as do both my son and I too) but feel comfortable telling M anything, and not so much at all, me. That said, M keeps every single secret from me--and only during periods that hang in the balance, does he give me an idea of what has been said--a general idea. The thing is, I want to know. But M is right. When I do find out anything negative I blow up, begin to spew invective, or get very afraid about things over which I have no control--and what in the world good is accomplished? Not much. I believe that we know more or less what we need to know. In fact, we cannot escape it. Thus this site. So, even though I would want to know, I think it is the better idea not to. [/QUOTE]
