[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 619639, member: 17269"] Wow. Your mom is being crazy judgemental. Listen, if your difficult child had lived in those biblical times, he would have been smote down a long time ago. And had she (your mom) lived in those times...well she wouldn't have been allowed to read or quote the scriptures. None of that matters though. What matters is that you delete those emails right away, don't read them again, dont let them wiggle into you and make you feel diminished. She hasn't lived and breathed it like you have. She just doesn't know, can't know. Child, I started a thread a while back about cutting off communication with my difficult child. The general theme was "you should do what you feel comfortable with" and "you probably don't need to go that far". But I did need to go that far. I did cut off all communications, and even asked my sister not to tell me if she talked to him. I refused all his calls. I ignored his one attempt to reach me on faceback. I had to do it. Like you....I was just bone-tired weary to my core. And you know what? I feel a little better now. Its been six weeks. I figured I'd give myself to June 1 before I dealt with any of it again, even my thinking and feelings about it. I gave myself permission to ignore him for that long. And it is OK. In fact, when I thik about talking to him, my body rises up against me in mute protest...I can feel myself tense, my stomach churn, my blood pressure go up. So I am not ready. I need to work through to some peace in my mind. I can't do that with contact with him. I am having a hard enough time without him interfering with the process of getting to peace. I am quite sure I'm doing the right thing. Tomorrow is his birthday, as I posted in another thread. I won't talk to him then either. I just. need. a. break. It isn't about him, its about me. And its time. So I support whatever you decide to do, and I support you whether you stick to it or not. Whether you take a break for an hour or a year or not at all. You will feel your way to what is right. Echo [/QUOTE]
