Dear DQ

It's been more than a month since I've posted. There's a good reason for that. I came to suspect DQ had found the blog. I decided to go dark for a bit. But now, I'm hoping she's found it. Because DQ ran away from her group home on March 21st. She's been gone for almost 3 weeks. We've followed every lead and sighting. We've paid people to look for her, with a bonus should they find her. We've needled the Norfolk detectives division with phone calls. At this point I'm hoping she will hear my last ditch plea. 

Dear Daughter, 

Please know that I love you and always will. I will always hope for the best for you. I want you to succeed and be happy. I hope whoever is harboring you is taking good care of you. With that being said, I feel it's my job as your mother to warn you...
 
You want to be out in the world, making your own choices. You think that you're not a child anymore. But this latest choice proves that you are indeed, still a child. You are making snap decisions with no regard for your future. You are living for the moment unaware that what you do today will affect the rest of your life. That is something children do. 

If you were grown enough to be out on your own, you'd know that you should be making full use of every opportunity you've been given. You're missing school. Effectively throwing away at any chance of college. How far do you think you're going to get in life being so impulsive? 

I won't get into how your being gone has affected everyone else. Because I know, being boarderline personality disorder means, you don't care about how you affect others. So I'll plead to something you understand. How this will affect you...

If you don't turn yourself in soon, your future, the one you dream of, with the big house and the fancy car, will be destroyed. You will be the only one to blame, because you're the one slamming the door in the face of all your potential. 

You are incredibly smart. Please don't waste all your chances for success because you want to be stubborn. Open your eyes. If for no other reason that to save yourself. Because the longer you stay gone, the more bridges get burned. 

Please know, if you call me soon, I will come for you. No matter day or night. But at this point, you're the only one who can change your path. You must be willing to work for it. Child of mine, hear me when I say, nothing is just going to land in your lap. If you don't work for yourself, no one else will either. 

I love you. Please be safe as you make your way in the world.

Love, Mom

To the person who is currently harboring my first born child,

Regardless of what story she told you, she is a minor. She has a mental health diagnosis and is currently off her meds. You have been informed now. Continuing to harbor her means you understand the full wrath that will befall you, if you do not turn her in. Please understand, while she may seem harmless, my family and friends are anything but. 

If you are discovered I will make it my life mission to destroy you. Everything you care about, everything you own, your reputation, your freedom... Everything from your job, your house, your car, your god damn family pet, Will Be Mine. I have people with very specialized skills waiting for me to give them a name and the word 'go'. If you think you are untouchable, untraceable, invincible, let me assure you, when I'm done with you, you'll live with nothing but regret for the rest of your life.  

The ONLY way to avoid the inevitable, because trust me when I say, you will be found out, is to turn her in NOW. Call the Norfolk Detective Bureau and tell them where to find her.
