[QUOTE="Enmeshedmom, post: 726163, member: 22547"] I wonder what would happen if you stopped apologizing every 1 or two months and stepped writing checks for birthdays or holidays? If he wants something from you make it a requirement that he face you and talk to you respectfully. I think he knows he doesn’t have to and he can still get something from you, and your apologies are just icing on the cake that tell him he is not in the wrong here. My ex is in his 40’s and is horrible to his mother, always has been and she goes running to him still whenever he wants something. It is really hard to feel so rejected my our kids. I hope you do start putting yourself first. Good luck [/QUOTE]
