General News: Mother of Jersey Boy Speaks
October 25, 2006
DEAR EDITOR,
MY SON IS MICHAEL, 18-YEARS-OLD AND LIVING UP IN CORNWALL. HE IS ONE OF THE JERSEY BOYS THAT IS CAUSING SOME OF THE PROBLEMS IN YOUR AREA.
I DO WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO BRING HIM BACK HOME AND I CANNOT DO ANYTHING LEGAL BECAUSE HE IS OF AGE. MY SON IS ADOPTED AND IS LABELED WITH EMOTIONAL DISORDERS.
THERE ARE PARENTS IN YOUR COMMUNITY WHO FEEL THEY SHOULD HELP MY SON WITH A PLACE TO L IVE. THAT IS FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. MY SON CHOSE TO LEAVE HOME, HIS COLLEGE TUITION PAID FOR AND A CAR TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO SCHOOL. MY SON MADE BAD DECISIONS AND HE NEEDS TO PAY THE CONSEQUENCES.
HOWEVER, ADULTS HELPING HIM DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TURMOIL THIS HAS ON HIS ENTIRE FAMILY. BECAUSE MY SON IS NOT ON MEDICATION OR HARMFUL TO HIMSELF, I CANNOT LEGALLY DO ANYTHING TO GET HIM HOME. HOWEVER, MY POINT IS IF MY 18-YEAR-OLD SON IS WITH A 16-YEAR-OLD LITTLE GIRL, ISNT THERE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE HE IS ENDANGERING A MINOR?
I HAVE 2 DAUGHTERS & 2 STEPDAUGHTERS. I KNOW THAT HER PARENTS ARE SICK WITH WORRY OVER THIS RELATIONSHIP. ESPECIALLY, BECAUSE MY SON HAS A LOT OF BAGGAGE FROM HIS PAST AND, TRULY, A 16- YEAR-OLD LITTLE GIRL CANNOT EVEN FATHOM THE INTENSE THERAPY OVER THE YEARS, NOT ONLY FOR MY SON, BUT AS A FAMILY. WE ALL HAD TO LEARN TO COPE WITH HIS BEHAVIOR.
MY SON BELIEVES IN HIS FRIENDS BUT A TRUE FRIEND WOULD HAVE NEVER LET MY SON LEAVE HOME KNOWING THAT HE STILL HAS MORE COUNSELING TO DO. AND WHY WOULD ANYONE CARE ABOUT MY SON WHO IS ONLY WORRIED ABOUT HIMSELF (NARCISSUS)?
THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES THAT ARE ON HIS PLATE AND MY CONCERN IS THAT I MAY NEVER EMOTIONALLY GET MY SON BACK TO WHERE HE WAS WHEN HE LEFT HOME.
WE ALL LOVE HIM AND HE NEEDS TO BE LOVED AND SURROUNDED BY LOVE NO MATTER WHAT HIS CHALLENGES. I ASK ANYONE WHO IS TRYING TO HELP MY SON PLEASE DO NOT!
LOVING HIM ALWAYS & FOREVER,
MICHAEL'S MOM
P.S. I JUST WANT MY SON TO COME HOME WITH THE KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING FROM THE LESSONS THIS ESCAPADE HAS CAUSED IN HIS LIFE AND IN THOSE LIVES WHO LOVE HIM.
