I usually laugh at frantic parents searching for their adult kids.
They are adults - they are fine!
However, my youngest didn't answer his phone for 24 hours yesterday and I couldn't sleep for 2 nights. This morning I woke up - called every friend, venue, and University employee I could to connect. I sent my son texts, emails, and social media messages. I was frantic. My wife and I walked the floors praying out loud. When my son finally saw his phone, he thought something horrible happened because of all the messages and phone calls he missed.
IT WAS SOOOO GOOD TO HEAR HIS VOICE!
I will never laugh at a worried parent again.
@sinbach why didn't he answer?
@tanjaostman on one day, because of the time change, I called too early on a day when he had no morning classes so he didn't answer. then he was with his Christian frat group Kai Alpha the entire next day and night for a special event with his phone in his bag. Because of several factors I couldn't reach him during a time when he was expected to be actively comming with me and I got a really bad gut feeling...so like a really annoying frantic dad (the kind I find disgusting) I started freaking out and imagining the worse. stupid me for falling for the enemy's tricks.
