I think booker_one is just having what we Texans call a conniption fit. Prolly just needs a good nap or some nookie. People like that are so far gone in their heads that's there's no use trying to disagree with them. I come from a huge family full of people like this (which is one reason I'm so glad to be in Oregon!) but I also know not all Texans are this way. I also know you find people like this everywhere, not just in Texas. When you come across hateful people like this, it's better just to nod your head and go "uh-huh"... and just let them act mean and crazy. Fortunately they are not the majority here in our beautiful country, which is prolly why they are always so worked up about everything. People like that want everybody to fit into the same mold - their mold - and if you don't, then they let themselves get all worked up and uspet. They feel like they have to fix you, or change you, or just lash out at you and verbally abuse you, instead of just accepting and even celebrating the differences among us all. It's too bad. I mean - it's diversity among a culture that makes it strong, you know? If we were all the same, how weak and bland and shallow-minded would we be? I don't even want to ponder it.
Anyway... this thread has gone way OT. Has the OP even replied yet?

that has to be the funniest post ever. you talk about me getting worked up because not everyone has my beliefs but you have been doing the exact same thing. actually, you are the one that responded to my first post on this thread. so, you are the one getting worked up about me not having the same beliefs as you.
do you really think i am hateful because i do not think the homosexual lifestyle is right? wow....you really need to grow up a little bit.
You've gotten off topic, but I don't know if it matters because the OP has not returned. I'd really be interested to find out how things are going with the naughty 19 year old!
only on saturdays. i really wish people would stop saying that because i don't agree with the lifestyle that i am hateful. i mean crap, i lived with 1 gay dude in college and had no problem with him as a person.....just the fact that he took it up the butt. and no, i did not join in.

What are people supposed to think when you say things like "at least he's not gay" or something. It's like you're basing someones entire personality on their sexual preference
If we pay the bills, you'd better believe we will be all over you if you do not answer the cell phone. If you do not answer, we assume (1) you are someone you should not be, (2) you are with someone you should not be with, etc.
If you want to play by your rules, you're on your own.
If you are upfront with us, we were young once and yes, we remember.
You will be amazed at what we can work out so try it rather than being dishonest about it.
One other thing: College is a gift for your future.
LOL, this does often seem to be the case with those who protest too much.

You do sound hateful. And bigoted. It really is quite an unpleasant trait, and I suggest you think more about yourself and your own life, than the sex life of consenting adults.

i'm not looking for your approval. i'm sure you do not care for certain things. does that make you hateful and bigoted? i'm sure you do not think so.
To get back on track to the OP. My son also started college this year. He commutes from home but about 3 weeks ago he decided he just didn't need to let us know that he wanted to stay in a friends dorm & another friends house that week.
I have let him know that if he is not coming home to sleep that night I need a text & if it is more than one night I need a quick call.
& calling the cell provider & asking them to suspend his cell service got him to finally call me!
Good luck!
