[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 676295, member: 19522"] Hi Sea, I am so very sorry for this. You have reached out to your son before, as a loving mom, and had similar results. It is devastating. Sometime there is a little glimmer of hope inside our mommy hearts, a wish, a memory, or the holidays, birthday, full moon, many things can have us yearning for our d c's, we end up trying [I]just one more time.[/I]....I am so sorry it turned out this way [I]again[/I] for you. I am looking at it this way with my two. They have proven through their actions that I am nothing more than an "opportunity" to them. Be it drugs, mental challenges or a combo, there is no loving, caring, [I]balance[/I] in our relationship. At this point, I just don't trust them. I have to ready myself for when I do have contact again (they are still "punishing" me with no contact) to be on my guard. It is sad, but this is the reality of the situation with my two, for now. It may change, but it will take a lot for them to prove they have changed, for me to be able to trust them again. You are not stupid, Sea, just a loving Mom wanting a relationship with your son. It takes time to figure stuff out, to stop letting our hearts overrule our heads. You will be okay. You need to do what it takes to protect yourself, your heart. All things change with time Sea. Don't give up on your son, just know for now, as long as he mistreats you, backing way off and taking a break may be in your best interest. Holding you in my thoughts and prayers for peace of mind and heart. (((Hugs))) leafy [/QUOTE]
