[QUOTE="Elsieshaye, post: 480204, member: 12928"] Thanks, Everyone. I think the bullying, and how similar it is to his father's behavior, is the crux of the problem. I'm not doing him any favors if I roll over for it, nor am I taking good care of my own needs if I do that. In the 5 weeks that he's been gone, my hair has stopped falling out and my nails have grown out. I've lost 5 pounds and I'm sleeping again. The bullying has been a pattern of his for a while, and I really had bent myself into a pretzel to work with it. No more. (In terms of safety, it's hard for them to travel up here, and I'm maintaining my window and door alarms and other precautions. As long as they stay where they are, I feel pretty safe.) (Signorina, there must indeed be something in the air, and escape looks good. I actually had to confront a coworker yesterday! He blatantly and condescendingly lied to my face about something I had documentation for, so it was easily proven where the issue really lay. What is so ****** hard about "hey, yeah, I messed up - let me fix that"??? I vote for a Parents Emeritus cruise to someplace sunny with yummy fruit drinks that have the paper umbrellas, lol.)
