[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 746197, member: 18958"] I think we need to scour the internet and see if trauma in young adolescent males can give rise to the kind of behaviors he has been manifesting. Of course this is not all of it. Because what gave rise to the running away in the first place? I would not be surprised if some other trauma happened BEFORE he started running away. I mean. You live in an area where people who are unknown come through and then leave. Anything could have happened. Apparently he has been keeping secrets. At least that's one hypothesis. There is no reason to think there are not more of them. SOMETHING happened to change this boy from compliant and loving to OFF THE DEEP END. Why do people want to assume the WORST CASE about HIM? To call HIM nasty names and to give him diagnoses that would destine him to the worst, most intractable, outcomes? Rather than open our minds to the possibility that something happened to him or something is happening within him to distress him so that he is not ACTING like himself? Give him a :censored2:ing break. He's only a kid. This is not to say he should come home. It is to say...let's NOT write him off!!! PS. If the psychic lives in your area, what makes you believe she did not have prior knowledge? (I am not discounting that people have powers...I am taking aim at her "receiving" diagnoses.) [/QUOTE]
