| Need Help And Advice. I have a problem and I need all the help that I can get. I know that I am old fashioned and behind the new "age" that is going on, BUT I am not stupid either (I hope).
My son who lives with me after my wife left because she was not happy anymore, but that is another story. My son plays a game on the internet called "World of Warcraft". He can talk to all who plays this game also, and has "MET" a girl on this game, who he only knows from talking with her on the internet. She wants him to come to Los Angles to see her. She is a black gal, and has not met my son either except thru playing this game. So, only knowing her by this game, has taken his vacation and has plane tickets and has a motel room there for his week of vacation. I made it very clear to him that I was not happy with him for doing this without knowing a whole lot more than he does about her. He went to my ex-wife and she gave him one thousand dollars to do this. I was not even involved in this at all and was not able to stop this before it happened.
I called her and asked why in the world would she do this, not knowing anything about this gal, only what he has told her? Her response was that he was 23 years old, and needs to get out of the house and find out about life. UHMMMMMMMM! Well, I freaked! Before any of this took place, I called her and let her know about this, and that I was not for this in anyway, and the reasons why! She agreed whole heartedly with me, and yet she gives him the money, not even calling me to see what I thought! So, after all this was done, I called her and said why again, and told her why she would do this not knowing one thing about this girl and sending our son out to one of the most dangerous cities on this earth, ALONE and not knowing one soul out there except this girl, whom he does not even know? She said that she trusted him, and I said that is not the issue at all, but doing this without my involvment and agreeing to send him out there, not knowing anything about this person, alone not really knowing anyone! Am I wrong? Thanks craigb |
