I know they can. It is just that I don't have any control over the situation. My problem.
Not having any control over the situation is the hardest part. He's prolly (finally) in the right place, though. Just sad that it took bein in the wrong place to get him there. I hope the support group provides tons of support! {{{{3mg}}}}

Hi, someone spotted my first post and directed me here to introduce myself. I'm Ellen, sorry for disrupting the conversation, but am delighted that there are some other ah..mature people vaping. I live on an island in Australia and don't know anyone else that uses a vaporiser, so I'm just happy to be here.

She quit working with him? Was it through the school?
Yup. She never quit, just refused, despite a thick file. Complicated story, you know some of the background. Preferential status for the preferred, and all that.

Given my situation, I couldn't do anything.

Hi Ellen!! Glad you came here. You're not at all interrupting, we often have a few topics going on at the same time! This is just a place to hang out and relax. We have some in their 40's here and some in their 70's, don't think anyone is in their 80's yet lol

I forget how long you said you'd been off cigs, but congrats again!! Pull up a rocker, recliner, swing, whatever and grab some coffee and jump right in

we have so much that could be offered for kids......and so many haven't gotten it. Burns me up. The saying is they slip through the cracks, I say they get shoved through the craters

That's clever. I've actually never heard someone play with the phrase "slip through the cracks" before, and I like your take. I might change it to "shoved into the craters" when I borrow it.

Thanks for the welcome, off the smokes for 9 weeks. I'm still in shock, been smoking since I was a kid. And was a chain smoker the last 15 years. I'm American, but been living here for 13 years.
Most American on here?
Most here are American, but....we have at least one Aussie and an ex-pat living in Canada.......the internet and the forum are wonderful ways for us all to reach across the country and the globe....;)

3mg, my grandson is an Aspie. Haven't seen him in about 6 years amd no hope for the future. My son and his mother divorced when he was about 3 and she is a psycho. I really hirts to hear the way the grandson talks to his father. One minute he wantts to talk, the next he hates his father and never wants to hear from him again. My son just keeps paying his child support and trying, but it is very difficult.

Congradulations gordon! At least they didn't name him Bran Castle. :rolleyes:

    Hi, grab a seat, relax, have a vape, and enjoy your stay on the porch! Glad to have you here.:)
