Hello My Lovelies!
I have here yet another follow-up report from one of my previous posts. Well actually, this is follow-up from two letters.
This young lady actually wrote in with concerns about her young son, twice.
A Little One Loses A Friend
Trouble Between Cousins
Here's how she says things are making out with her son:
You gave me some excellent advice on a couple of occasions... as you know! Just wanna let you n the readers know that my son is doing well. I made use of the school counselor for both the grief issues he had when his classmate died and the issues with his cousin. He seems to be doing well with both issues. My brother has moved. His son is also in counseling now... after I spoke my concerns to his mother. She took it better than I thought. Turns out there was an incident with a neighbor boy where they live, and she hadn't pursued counseling for him when it first happened. I'm sorry that it took his acting out to get him the help he needed. I'm trying not to be too judgmental about her not taking care of her biz when it first went down, but hey.... I'm still salty it impacted my son before the kid got help. I'm still not ready to have him around my son. Maybe someday.... I'm not as angry with my dad as I was at first. And really, that anger probably came from issues I have leftover from childhood than anything to do with this situation. My son still talks about his classmate and asks questions about death and dying, but the counselor assures me it's all age appropriate and constructive. I really appreciate the input you gave and the validation of my own instincts! You rock out loud!
I'm so glad that things have gotten better for you and your family. I was especially concerned in your case because of the nature of the things going on with your little boy. I'm delighted to know he's doing well! Thank you for entrusting your very sensitive family issues to me.
Thanks for reading guys, and if you have a follow-up story for me, be it good or bad, please send it to askthepbg@gmail.com and I'll post it.
In all things, I wish you love, light and clarity.
