[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 420641, member: 1233"] Thanks all. I think that my mom has made some real changes in accepting that I will not budge on my stance re:gfgbro, and is now willing to follow them and not try to push me into anything. I am still very aware that slips not only could happen but probably will, and I have decided how I want to handle them. That way I am prepared and won't react or over-react. NONE of us need that kind of drama anymore. I am doing very well, in my opinion, on not dwelling on this mess and how it is affecting the entire family. Mostly any time I think about it is when I am talking with my mom (and it is not the only thing we talk about, yippee!), posting here or when the kids ask questions. They are worried about their cousin because they know about the court case and have been told some things by niece. Thankfully when niece tells them something that is inapropriate or whatever, they tell me in private so that a responsible adult knows. Thank you all for helping me see that boundaries needed to be set, setting them and figuring out how to stick to them. I love each and every one of you! [/QUOTE]
