[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 707908, member: 17635"] Our Difficult Child always contacted us in a friendly way right before he wanted money. husband and I had a sad joke. Whomever heard from him would text/call the other: "Hey, heard from Difficult Child..." We knew that meant he was about to ask for $$. It always played out that way and was stressful. The last time (when we finally said [B]NO[/B]), he sent an email to several family members, along the lines of [I]What happened? We were getting along great! I had just texted them about what happened to the Skipper on Gilligans's Island. [/I] husband and i had checked out, largely because the strength we got from this forum. It was always the same ol, same ol. We said no and all heck broke loose. We should have done it years earlier. If your case is anything like ours (plainly playing us), I hope you decline and stay strong. [/QUOTE]
