I thought Shamou made an interesting point. That all around the world, people are hearing various things about their sons and daughters. Some are hearing worse. I think that's an interesting way of looking at things.
And Alchemiss raised the question of where did the informing e-mail come from. Is it possible that your daughter could have sent you that e-mail herself, or asked a friend to do it? It might mean that she is ready to talk.
I, too, agree, that an accepting attitude would lead to the best discussion of the past and future. I hold you in my heart and wish you the best. |
