[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 478074"] Oh my goodness, you poor mama. Of course it hurts. No need to justify your hurt with us. Trust your instincts. You spoke to the director last night, you saw your difficult child yesterday.Size it up in your head and do whatever it is you need to do. Leave her there, find another place, shut off your phone (or change difficult child's alert tone to silent). Lately, I have been doing my best to try and stop playing games with my difficult child and just to put everything on the table. If I need to hear his voice, I call him without apologizing and I say "I needed to hear your voice". I am answering my own needs and I am not apologizing to myself for doing it. If answering my needs gives difficult child the illusion of the "upper hand", I don't give a rat's patootie. Everybody else seems to have no problem putting themselves first - so I am going to do the same. So, if you want to drive to the sober house and check it out - DO IT. If you think she is full of baloney - DO NOTHING. Whatever works for YOU Be good to yourself...{{{hugs}}} [/QUOTE]
