[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 530803, member: 1550"] I have gone through this. It has been six years since I've interracted with one of my sons, and we only interracted one time because I asked his church for help and they got him to meet me. BOY WERE THEY NASTY. they were so nasty and hurtful that I never want to see them again. This is not the boy I raised AT ALL. He changed a lot after he met Wife. It's been over a year since that last and only meeting in six years. I can not change anything and, after sitting there and hearing the abuse face-to-face, I rarely think about him anymore (except for the cute little boy he once was, but that seems like a different person). I tell people I have four kids because I do. We adopted Scott at age six and he does not want to be a part of our family. He is thirty-four now and can make that decision that he couldn't make at age six. He is not even down in my signature. I have detached as far as one can and take joy and extra comfort in my other four children and my husband and the simple things in life. Going to court was such a vicious thing to do that I'd get into therapy and move on. Don't even ask about her anymore because hearing about her life and what she says about you will only hurt you and won't change anything. Don't just blame Bozo though. I don't just blame Scott's wife. Scott is a willing participant in this...he is equally to blame. All of us make mistakes, but people choose to forgive or to never forgive. Our children, for now, are not forgiving...and are being exactly what they accuse us of being. Or worse. Time is a great healer. Even for something as horrible as this. (((Hugs)))! [/QUOTE]
