    Need help with new to us goose

    Update: Well once again it's been a long time since I have posted. My son continued to have struggles in our small town and decided one day that he need to move out and on with his life.

    Need help with new to us goose

    Long story so I will try to keep it short. My DS has been having some trouble with the powers that be here in our small town, he went down to the river feeling like his life was over and trying to clear his head. While there a goose walked up to him and he convinced it to let him pet it. They...
