I found this piece imformative. being a parent of a bipolar child and going thru some of the sames heartaches and frustration, I myself feel so alone sometimes with people judging you or your child because of his behavior. I my self found it comforting to know someone else shares my frustration of making someone understand your child and his pain , the struggles he or she may have with every day life... I commend these young people and thier families for sharing such personal strides.......... BRAVO
