[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 673980, member: 16024"] Good morning, V Sounds like your daughter has sensed that you are trying to disengage from her drama and she is trying to pull you back in with her latest voice mail, reminding you once again of your grandchildren and telling you to work on some vague 'issues' you supposedly have. Don't fall for it. She is sounding quite desperate that she can't get to you like she has before, that you aren't dancing to her tune. You are taking your power back from her. And she doesn't like it. This is a good thing. When it is time to re-start the relationship, you need to come in as an equal to her, not as a beggar. She will respect you if you do this. And your grandchildren will learn to respect you. This is very important. You don't want to teach them that they can treat you--and other people--badly. Keep strong, V. Know this is the right thing to do. by the way--I was speaking in a tongue-in-cheek manner when I said you should 'honor their spiritual path'. Of course they are not acting 'spiritual'. Just shrug it off and learn from what they said, that they do not appreciate the things that you give them. Stay strong and keep posting. Apple [/QUOTE]
