Where are your children?
Standing in an alley in Rome, beside his retching friend...trying to make a call, to make a buy!
Standing in an alley in Rome, she is drunk, telling someone else that he has a problem!
Standing in an alley in Rome, saying, "I just want to be cool"!
There is no "Street smart for dummies" course that I know of, damned shame about that, most American kids (and these were all Americans) really need one. Pampered from birth to college and released into the wilds, they don't have a clue.
Yes, I grew up in a different time and in a big city environment, but no one EVER admits to a weakness or Shows it...you might as well paint a bulls-eye on your chest. Letting go of your child is the hardest thing a parent can do, but to allow them to be so totally unprepared is almost criminal.
Unfortunately this is a recurring event, which I can only be unhappy with and disgusted by. So, as I have heard before, "I am sorry for your troubles", because you have or will have them! How can I be so sure...read the title again!
