Not a great title but can't think of anything catching this time of the morning. Will figure out how to link to the old thread.

I know he is safe and
Is accessing the money I put into his account daily.
Still feel awful about it all although I am
Only crying in the night when everyone else has gone to bed. Except now that I am writing it down.
I think about him constantly and I wish I could magic it al away but I can't.
Thank you for all your kind thoughts x

I’m sorry tiny. You are being so brave and strong. I hope 2019 brings you peace and that your son learns a valuable lesson.

He has now lived on his own for three weeks. I have been in touch via phone call. He knows how much he has messed up and that life will never be the same for him again.
SS have just dumped him somewhere and can't even be arsed to respond to emails I have sent them regarding him. he has contact with another family member and knows we love him etc
I am glad he is relatively safe and is just about managing but he has no real washing facilities that he can access as a disabled person; despite us telling SS.
I feel so much better from talking to him and the contact he has from someone in the family x

Sadly that was a troll 😡

Aridane · 12/01/2019 10:46

I know Blush. - thought I was being compassionate and helpful...

Groovee · 12/01/2019 12:14

It annoys me when people do that when you have genuine posters who do need help. You were only helping someone that you believed needed it.

Sammysees · 12/01/2019 12:41

How do people know it’s a troll? I also read that thread and had no idea they were a troll. Its a pretty sad world when someone feels the need to make up stories for attention. And like you said,annoying when there are people who genuinely need help.
Hope everyone is ok?

Groovee · 12/01/2019 13:26

There were reports and MNHQ must have seen the IP was a previously banned poster who had been banned for trolling.

Aridane · 12/01/2019 14:17

‘Fortunately’ it was all made up.

When MNHQ posted to say OP was a PBP, I posted to ask whether she was a PBP making it up, or a PBP banned for other reasons starting a genuine thread.

MNHQ responded on the thread, before its deletion, to say her banning was for making things up and that was also the nature of the thread

Sammy I'm good at spotting trolls because I've been an admin/moderator on and off since 2003 on various sites. I still get caught out occasionally!

tinytemper66 · 25/01/2019 10:19

How are people? We are in same position but I am calmer and accepting of the situation. I am still sad but as I cannot change anything I am able to function without crying 😢
He is safe and he has a roof over his head. He hasn't been charged yet and the DC I spoke to said he may not be. However the wrest has changed all our lives and he will never live with us again. I am supporting him from afar and I have spoken to him by phone. I won't see him yet but my mum has. Thanks for all the support on here. I have been very fortunate that I have real life support too.

Sammysees · 25/01/2019 14:01

Glad you are ok tiny. Things are pretty much the same here too. Trial in March. I’ve shut myself away from the world pretty much. I go to work, come home and don’t go out again. I’m dreading the press intrusion come March and am focussing all my energy on my son. I think his meds are kicking in and he seems less depressed. How is everyone else?

Afternoon, all is good here. 6 months of probation left, she goes to a woman's group twice a month.
It seems we have turned a corner finally.

Just wondering how everyone is doing?
Daughter had a blip but realised herself what a dick she had been without my lecture and her eye rolling.

Wow. @drinkswineoutofamug and all the other posters on here who have been / are going through the ringer. You are all so strong and the love you have is unwavering.

@drinkswineoutofamug I hope things are still going well for your Daughter. Have just read both threads in one go as am trapped under a poorly DS.

New jobs, illness, university courses, decorating the house, other DD having seizures, sorting houses in Bulgaria - all this ON TOP of the whole reason you made the thread. You're a bloody hero!

Hope good grace reaches all the pp who are struggling.

@settmenu thank you from all of us!

Well daughter has finally moved out properly. Her room is now my study. She's moved in with her gf. Whom I'm not keen on , but as I keep saying to her dad . She's an adult now. Not our problem. I sleep better at night. Her probation ends in July. Due to service cut backs in our area she only needs to attend once a month.

Hope everyone is doing ok. X

Well I have one of the best up dates ever. My daughter has stopped taking drugs. Stopped drinking. Got a flat and now a job. She's left and moved to a new town away from all influences here and turned it around. I'm so bloody proud of her. Never thought I would be sharing this news with you.
