a mum in crisis
Posted: Mon Apr 20, 2009 5:08 pm
My eldest son is 19 today. We are really very lucky, he doesn't drink a lot, and isn't into drugs, but I do worry. He lives to take a stroll at night with his ipod and this terrifies me. A couple of months ago a young man was murdered in our area. Four years ago, our 16 year old neighbour and classmate of my sons was killed when he was king hit at a train station. When my goes out, I lay awake till I hear him come home. I know I am probably being paranoid, but I also lost someone I loved and had known since we were both aged 8 though violence 10 years ago.
