[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 446437, member: 1514"] I will say this about the basic training thing. Even without a Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) or Borderline (BPD) person, you wouldnt want to notify them in my opinion. I dont think they would let them out unless you want to pull the person out and have them start their training all over again. Do you think your Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) son would want to come home and see your father enough to start over in basic? I say this because I had a son in boot camp and you really dont want to give them any news that is going to take them away from the very difficult tasks that they are doing. Its not an easy thing they are going through. My son was at Parris island. Now he was doing some training at Lejeune about a month and a half later and his grandfather became quite ill and we had another choice that we had to make about contacting him. This time we did contact him. We really didnt know if his beloved Papa was going to make it or not but this training was something he could repeat without a huge deal. The Marine Corps was absolutely wonderful in the way they handled it. They sent for my son in the field but while they were getting him, a general at the base actually called my dad and spoke with him for quite awhile. It really made his day since my dad was a WWII Marine. LOL. It turned out my dad recovered but they let my son call my dad and they brought him in from the field every night for a week so he could call him to make sure he was okay. I thought that was huge.
