[QUOTE="Mirabelle, post: 763696, member: 28712"] Newstart - it is so nice to hear from you. I am glad you feel that you have some peace in your life right now (although I know that we never know for how long.) My husband is considering cutting off all contact with his son apart from making sure his bills are paid and he gets his allowance. I have always encouraged and supported a relationship between them. But at the moment I do not. My husband is being hands down abused and bullied, no bones about it. I hope he has the courage to shut his son out for a while for his own healing, and quite possibly, to save his own life. His emotional and physical health has really suffered. I was interested to read that of many things you have tried, quitting talking to your daughter for a few months was what helped you most. [I]I just could not take her BS any longer and knew if I continued it would ruin my health. [/I]My husband is at this exact point. And what a wondrous thing to think that it made your daughter change. I know everyone's situation is different, but I can't think of anything we have tried to this point that has worked. Cutting off contact is really the only thing we have not done. Thank you! Hugs to you. :):) [/QUOTE]
