Unfortunately, I have been there, and done that. My son is currently committed under court order, for an illness that sounds a lot like this guy had.

When this happened, all I could think of was, this could easily have been my son.

Over the past few days, I have felt a lot better about this choice. when he called me last night, like he does every Monday night, he all but thanked me for putting him in the “School”. He is a few weeks shy of 18, and is in a secure residential setting, with others like him.

I applaud you.

You must have been heartbroken, but you put your son's best interests first.

If more people made that kind of sacrifice, a lot of damage to civil society could be spared.
