Thanks everyone; I've been taking a break from the forums. Nothing really new to report, just more of the same. It's like a broken record.
I'm still very worried about S14!
I pretty much hate HMO insurance; I've called 18 different male therapists covered by our HMO. Only two have returned the messages, and only to say that their earliest appointments for S14! will be in May.
Friday night I dropped him off at his school to watch his best friend in a school play. I was supposed to pick him up at 10pm. When I showed up to get him, he was gone. 15 minutes later he sent me a message saying he had gone to a restaurant with friends. I called W to make sure she was on board, and went to pick him up and set some boundaries about how this wasn't acceptable. He was pretty apologetic and surprised that I showed up.
Footnote, W was smashed drunk at our neighbors house and not really able to participate in the discussion. Her main concern was to express how angry she is that both kids don't spend enough time with her. She leaves town all the time, spends the night out, and basically avoids them most of the time. She wanted to confront the kids about this right then. I told her that I wasn't willing to talk with her when she was drunk. She stormed home, told me "you always get your way!", and slammed her door.
She is taking them to her parents for spring break, leaving this saturday. They will be gone for 7 days.

Awoken, can you ask the school counselors to see if there are any free teen hotlines to call? You know, free telephone counseling?
As to W- drama, oh yes, all about her, isn't it? Not thinking at all about the kids here. I hope your lawyer will be notified of her drunken behavior.
I hope things go ok during the spring break.
Hugs, June
