I'm glad he is back. The story is fishy, but that's not the point right now. Whichever version is true, it may have gotten S's attention, at least a little. Some kids seem to have to learn every lesson for themselves, they won't "learn" them otherwise. Our second son was hanging out with some friends of a friend this summer, I'm glad he headed off for school this fall, because I think there was trouble to be found if he around them too much. I'm glad to hear you H handled it well, the last thing you need now is for you S to be afraid of you two, you need him to at least trust you, now more than ever!
