[QUOTE="Zone Defense, post: 684591, member: 20225"] He was found late Thursday night, thank God! He was caught shoplifting alcohol. Unfortunately the juvenile detention center wouldn't take him. The police department wanted to release my chronic runaway, drug and alcohol dependant child to my custody. I asked that he be taken to the emergency room. After nearly 24 hours there with him, he was finally transported to a behavioral health center late Friday night. I went to see him today. He says this is all my fault, that I chose to put him there. He refuses to acknowledge that his actions brought him there. He stated he doesn't care that we were worried, that our feelings were our responsibility, not his problem. I was supposed to visit for an hour, but after 25 minutes of listening to his ranting and blame shifting I chose to leave. I told him that since my feelings were, according to him, my responsibility alone to bear, that this didn't feel good to me and I needed to go. Hopefully he will be going straight from behavioral health to drug rehab. Thank you for all your thoughts, support and prayers. [/QUOTE]
