[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 621674, member: 1550"] difficult child equates caring with money. Not just yours. Most of ours. Not our love, support, and warm memories. Money. Anyway, it's up to you, but here is a thought. Do you really like your mom forwarding you 32s e-mails? If it were me, I would ask her not to read them to me nor forward them to me. You don't HAVE to know what he is saying. That's really your own decision. I wouldn't want to read that sort of stuff. However, as we have been talking about here, I am not you. I just brought it as something maybe you might want to think about, then, of course, do what you want. I also do know how you feel about the decent relationship bit. There are times that I have to fight remembering that Scott was so vile to me and his siblings. He went so far overboard that I know it can't completely mend. My sadness over it happens less and less now, but it is there at times. I just try not to dwell on it because dwelling on it doesn't change anything and I do have three wonderful other kids and one who I have a decent relationship with, at least over the phone, about half the time. Consider that once your difficult child knows you aren't going to be his meal ticket, you may never have the relationship you dreamed of when he was born, but your relationship could improve once he accepts your new role in his life and his new status as an adult in yours. Things with 36 have gotten a lot better between us, minus the months of his nightmarish custody battle. You can't know what will happen later on. No relationship should be based upon how much one person can get from the other. 36 really doesn't like his father, but he's nice to his face because he's a huge money machine for 36. If he wasn't, I don't even know if 36 would want to talk to him. Have a peaceful night :) [/QUOTE]
