[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 759678, member: 22877"] It looks like both my son and I have reached a juncture where, for our own very different reasons, we want no contact with each other. I know I have read posts over the years from members who have established "no contact" rules with their kids. Was it a permanent thing or were there conditions to reestablishing contact on some level? Or was it a "play it by ear and see where it goes" type of thing? Are you still maintaining the no contact boundary or has time allowed contact, like minimal at first and then gradually growing? What about drawbacks to no contact, especially where there is literally no way of getting in touch (you've changed your number, your child has changed theirs, etc)? What happens if you or your child end up in the hospital for major surgery or overdose...or worst case scenario happens? This is my biggest concern over the 100% no contact and the one thing keeping me from shutting and bolting the door on any communication with my son. Please share your experiences and stories and how it's working for you. [/QUOTE]
