[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 386358"] Well, nothing like getting a call from a complete stranger to discuss your "child". Made me miss my Al Anon meeting, too. :< This neighbor of my mother's called me to discuss difficult child. Said he almost had her easy child'd last night because she is only 17. I gave him the rundown of the situation. She of course, blamed everything on her real dad being dead (um, she has never even met the man) and her "stepdad" doesn't like her and other sob stories. OMG. I am fuming right now. Once I told this man the truth about difficult child and what life is like with difficult child and how difficult child has a perfectly wonderful home life here and could have again if she would only go to treatment, he stopped feeling bad for her. He admitted to me that she had an attitude problem. Um duh. He must have called her and told her he talked to me. She just called me and yelled at me for talking to this guy about her! I asked what is wrong? Afraid if I tell the truth no one will feel bad for you anymore? I told her the problem is that she is a drug addict and blames all of her issues on everything but the real reason - drugs. She then called and told me I am an "f"ing b, stay the h out of her life, disconnect her phone, and go away. Guess she didn't want to hear the truth. Not sure if I am ready to disconnect the phone, though. It does let me know she is alive. But after all of that, I am thinking it would give her another dose of reality. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
