[QUOTE="Ironbutterfly, post: 688343, member: 19951"] The only time I rejected my son was about 8 years ago. I did the tough love. I refused his phone calls for 6 months. He had began calling me every few days for money, it was always an emergency drama situation. He even had a guy in jail call me and say he was protecting him because he knew he was handicapped mentally, but he was getting out and could I bail my son out for 500.00 cause if I didn't he didn't know what would happen to him. I found out this was nothing but a lie and attempt to "yank on my emotions". So, finally one day I took his call. He told me it was the best thing I ever did for him, refusing his calls. I didn't reject him as a person, I rejected his "behavior" towards me. [/QUOTE]
