Okay so, there's this guy(age 17) I care about a lot. He has a ton of problems though and I really want to help him. His father died about a year or two ago and he moved out his mothers house and in with his alcoholic brother and two other guys. His mother seems to have problems of her own and has been bettering herself recently, going off to college and such. He and his mother never have had a real mother/son relationship and I can tell this really bothers him. I was thinking about messaging his mother(since there is no other way for me to get in contact with her) but I'm completely sure if I should or how I should do it. Please, I really need advice!
That is an exceedingly inappropriate thing to do without his express permission.
Talk to him. Offer him advice and understanding, but let him manage his own relationship with his mother. It is not your place to interfere. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
