[QUOTE="totoro, post: 219208, member: 3155"] Good for you for sticking to your feelings and views! It is hard when your Mom is whining and expecting you, maybe demanding that you do as she *feels*. Sounds kind of like my mother in law. When I cut off my Dad no-one could understand. Kind of like Wynter's Dad. It would be worse to try and bother. More pain in the long run, when it was meant to be for us to be in touch it happened. On my terms, maybe Wynter will gain some of your strength and be able to do as she needs when she is older. Despite what people will inevitably say regarding her Father. I had to hear it for so long, "Just contact him, why don't you write him" I had not idea where he was from 5 to 13... and then during my 20's again. Some family we put up with by choice. Some family, it is just better to be away from. It is better for us mentally and emotionally. For our souls. I think you are a very smart woman, you have to protect yourself and yet be around the people that you can actually have a bit of a good time with. And heck the respite can't hurt! [/QUOTE]
