According to me nothing is an alternate to be physically present to help your teen get out of the depression.But yes if that is not possible then We have alternate like telephone and emails. They do wonders. After a long chat a few words of motivation will definitely motivate the child.

Family love, to me, is the most valuable thing you have in your life. If you didn’t have your family, you wouldn’t go anywhere. When you were down, they were there for you. When you needed something they tried to make that happen. When you think you don’t have a family, you do. All you need to do is just give them a little call and they will be there for you. I got kicked out of the house when I was 18 and I had nowhere to go. I was around a wrong crowd and got into drugs. My addiction to meth was so bad, I nearly died. I realized that my life wasn’t going anywhere and I needed help. The first people that I called and the only people that I called was my mom and dad. They were very happy to help me and I went into a drug rehab program. I am currently on the program and I can already tell that things are getting back to normal. I’m getting my life back, and most important I’m getting my family back.

You’re such a thoughtful mom! Even risking getting tossed out of a church to encourage your child.

I know. When ours was out last winter, I rationed my laptop battery time and thanked God I had a Sprint wireless card for backup. We also played a lot of board games and ate snacks. I think I’d gain weight if it was a permanent deal.

How does “grannyann” up there know what I do when the electricity is off? Once we lost our Internet for a couple of days, and we almost couldn’t function.
