I hope this makes you feel better: I was in a situation similar to your son's when I was in HS. Counseling + 10 years passing have made it possible for me to accept that parent's flaws. We're not close, but I don't hate her anymore, or fear her. I'm basically indifferent & don't really think about what happened...ever. I hope your son can move past this terrifying event. Having a great mom like you will help so much.

Oh messy, I wish I could give you more than online hugs, because I'd give you a big bear hug right now. I'm so sorry your son has to deal with all of it. Your love is a comfort.

He called and texted me all night. The police have still not picked him up. I am not in that big of a city. Where is he hiding??? We can stay at my fiance's parents house as long as we want, but I want to go home. We have to, my son has school in the morning.
I hate this. I hate him. My son has a black eye this morning. I hope they find him soon.
Thanks for letting me vent and for all the support everyone.

How terrifying and enraging. I hope they find him soon, and that you and your son can feel safe in your own home. Good luck! I'm glad your son has you to advocate for him.
have you told the police that he has been calling you all night? i watch too many cop shows and i'm picturing like 17 cops in your kitchen trying to trace the call.

The police know he's calling and texting, they told me to ignore it and are adding a harassment charge. I don't think they can trace it? I don't know. The detective on my case hasn't called back this morning yet. I just don't understand why they can't find him. I don't want to be scared in my own home.

He sent me threatening text messages against my son, so the police just left again. Apparently, they can't pick him up until Monday because they don't issue warrants on the weekends (?) so now we wait and pray he doesn't show up. I think we may end up back at my fiances parents house tonight.
I am so tired. And scared. And angry. And I can't quit hugging my son.

That's horrible that they can't do anything on the weekend. Ridiculous. Definitely stay at your fiance's parents house. And ask that the police do drive by's tonight.
