[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 750659, member: 15801"] I have found when my son goes to that place and baits me in some way, like telling me that I did something awful and will never meet my grandchildren (who do not yet exist) that if I stay calm and rational and say I did the best I could with what I knew at the time...and that will be your choice it deflates the argument. We dont always come to any resolution but he backs off and lets it go. When I take the bait we end up sometimes escalating the argument into ridiculous statements by both of us. [/QUOTE]
