[QUOTE="Elsieshaye, post: 477026, member: 12928"] Hound Dog, it's tempting, and I know it's within my rights to do it that way, but for my difficult child that would be the nuclear option. Eventually, I would like to have a relationship with him, and getting rid of his stuff would push some huge buttons with him that I'm not willing to push. That single event would become the defining problem in our relationship, for him, and obscure everything else. If I send him his stuff, I don't burn that bridge, but I still keep him at arm's length by taking away every excuse to need to contact me. [/QUOTE]
