[QUOTE="blackgnat, post: 703245, member: 13561"] Totally feeling you, SWOT! Difficult Child just called asking for money (dad sent him $15 on Thursday, I sent him $20 on Friday) and when I didn't cave, the whole slanging match started. Dredging up all manner of things-it's my fault that he did/didn't do something, when was the last time I was there for him on his birthday, Please ma, don't make me steal, you and dad both left me, I will die if I'm out here much longer ... (this is the man who had a rehab lined up last Saturday and chose to leave it.) Got in a fight with someone "Ma if you could see my face right now, you'd know how much I need help". No son, I'm NOT sending you money. Hung up on me twice, then called again (why did I answer?) to turn the screws. I gave it back to him with both barrels and now I just feel drained. Guilty, wrong, heartless. Kind of the way I think you may be feeling too, SWOT, though I don't want to presume. Count me in on the phone diet. (sorry if I hijacked your thread-I just relate to that terrible sadness that you expressed, after dealing with the Difficult Child) [/QUOTE]
