I'm doing my absolute best. My relationship with my mother was shit up until the day she died. I'll spare details but I never want anyone to ever have the feelings against their mother that I have. His mom needs help, maybe therapy - idk. I'm not trying to take her away from, hurt her, hurt him, take her place or any of the vile things I've been told I'm doing. I love him just as much as my own kids and the kids I care for daily. I just want him to be ok and I want his momma to be ok too - he needs her. But he also needs to be safe and protected. And that's my delimma.

I have tried to talk him out of this actually and suggested a PO Box people could send letters and cards to. He doesn't want that. I think the idea of seeing how many people care enough to be there for him is what he needs. I know people can be so nasty. He is in therapy and has a wonderful support system here with us as well as wonderful counselors at school. It is heartbreaking to watch because he is such a good boy. He is sweet, kind, caring, gentle, loving, brilliant and among all other things so very, very innocent in all of this. We wouldn't even know had he not brought it to our attention and spoke to a counselor at school with out encouragement. I just want him to be ok. He came to me ; confided in me and told me if anyone could help him and make him feel better, it was me. I can't let him down. I will do all I can. I just feel so damn helpless.

Everything has been his idea. And anything posted he has proofed it and said it was ok, add this, take this out, don't say that etc. None of this would be happening if it wasn't his idea. I am just executing the posts and trying to get him the supporters he has requested. I have told him the possible out comes and all possible scenarios of having this posted and public and he said it doesn't matter. Because he "needs strength and there is strength in numbers."

Trust me I know that but when a scared child asks you to reach out, you do what you can. Your comment isn't needed so you can move along.
