[QUOTE="Beta, post: 734384, member: 22597"] My son just sent me several abusive texts, one after another. I replied that I would be willing to have a conversation but only if he is able to be civil and respectful. I told him not to text me with abusive and disrespectful text messages, that I wouldn't put up with it any more. Being on this site today gave me the resolve to do that. Yes, my faith is a source of strength for me. I know that God loves him more than I do, so I pray a lot. And yes, I think you're both right, I need to let him alone to discover what life is like without caring people in it. I don't know if he really doesn't love us or whether the Bipolar has taken over so much that he doesn't remember or feel love. Who knows. One thing I know is that I need to stop torturing myself with memories of him in his childhood, when things were good. The contrast is so painful. I have to keep telling myself that this is not THAT person; the person we knew and loved is gone, at least for now. [/QUOTE]
