Family
It’s two a.m. and she's not home yet. Where could she be? She said she'd be home by one. She's never been this late before; never been in any kind of trouble. Prom was over at midnight, where could she be? It’s the time of year when proms and graduations pull beloved teens out into the dark streets where some are, unfortunately, intoxicated. As parents you may want to shield them from what might happen but you can't always be everywhere. They want to take a date to the prom, not their mother. Proms and graduations seem to be the time of year when it happens. Inevitably, someone in school dies in a car wreck. Chances are someday we will all know how it feels to be the one's left behind, but what if it was your child instead of one of their classmates? This happened to a friend of mine. She didn't have an open relationship with her parents. They would have grounded her for months just for being with someone who was drinking alcohol. So, to her, getting into the car was her only choice. Luckily, she lived but shattered her pelvis bone. The other passenger wasn't so lucky. He crawled about ten feet trying to get help before he died of internal injuries.
