Years back I was forced to accept that my child had to live at a boarding school, where he couldn't drink alcohol or smoke tobacco as every teenager has to right to do.
Now he is doing well. He returned home. He got good grades. He has a fine job.
But the past sometime seem to haunt him.
If you allow your children to leave your home before they are 18 you risk emtional scars. In fact a killer named Hemy Neuman claims that he still suffers from his past when his parents arranged for him to go to Israel and live at an unnamed boarding school at age 13.
I don't know the name of this boarding school, but I recognize the potential for damage.
That's why I often find myself fearful that my son sometime in the future explodes and react as response of his past.
I guess you never stop being a parent.
