Big alert

When the kids are in bed I always check their messages; that way I can recognize bullying behavior and predators and keep an eye on who they interact with. A classmate of Glenn’s posted on the “cool guys” app group that he was going to end it. At least, that’s what I figured out. I was shocked. Glenn hadn’t read it yet, apparently this guy had posted it way past bedtime.

“We drove to the boy’s house with screeching tires”

In a panic, I called the boy – who didn’t answer. I didn’t have his parents’ number, but I did have those of the other ‘cool kids’. Long story short: it became an extremely intense situation, with screeching tires driving to the boy’s house – who was sleeping soundly. Nothing wrong. Dad was way behind in music knowledge. So not cool.”
