[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 693552, member: 17720"] Thank you, all. SWOT, I doubt he would have a police report, assuming it happened at all. Ready, this is such good advice. husband and I feel a lot clearer about it, now that we have had some time to let it settle. It isn't an emergency. Yes, it does sound fishy, now that I have had some time to think. He had no money, according to his demands for money and efforts to guilt us into sending him some. Jabber and IB, this is great advice and it is nice to know there is an answer that doesn't involve us. The bus dropped him off in Indiana last week, but he has been wandering since then. He SAYS he was robbed "on the Southside" and called from an Illinois area code -- I'm guessing he is in or near Chicago and wouldn't be surprised if he isn't exaggerating the danger level to try to get us to feel sorry for him. IB, this is what it sounds like to me too, with a little time and distance. It is likely just another story. husband and I talked about it this evening and we are both on the same page. Assuming he calls again about it, we will tell him he will have to figure it out and direct him to the places that help with those things. Assuming he doesn't call again about it, we will chalk it up to another pity play. Thanks, guys, for helping me find my footing. [/QUOTE]
