Re: Hello from VA

[Guest guest]

Hi Isabel,

My son is now 22 and currently going through a major meltdown. Just this weekend

he got angry over a TV show about a pregnant woman on Meth. He just flipped,

threw the TV remote and broke it, my younger boy put it back together. He then

proceeded to get a beer after drinking vodka, earlier in the day, my youngest

told him, he didn't think having a beer was a good idea, my oldest son flipped

yet again, took his shirt off and taunted his younger brother to hit him. He

finally calm down but wow. Anyway, this was brought on by his poor grades at

college.

If I were you I would start your son on Omega-3 ASAP. Also, be careful when it

comes to hiring educational consultants. We hired a woman in Oregon, Dore

Frances, as we were so desperate to help our youngest son. A nightmare ensued.

She suggested a wilderness camp and then an alternative school in Colorado. The

whole thing was a mess and cost a lot of money. The things I have learned.

Anyway, good luck and best wishes.

Take care and no worries

about too much happiness but I'm sure you guys will understand)
