[QUOTE="Catmom, post: 709021, member: 21332"] Hi Bluebell! If you remember, we had our sons leave the same weekend. I am fortunate that my son's phone "disappeared" and I discontinued the service. He never kept a phone for long and I got tired of replacing them. He now can only contact me by using a friend's phone and what a relief right now, as I believe the manipulation would be attempted constantly and I would have to block him then...I know my kids are not close and live barely talking to each other. Hopefully, they can work on it when things change, but there has been too much drama in the family for the past few years. I totally relate to your original post as I always felt like I couldn't express anger myself bc everyone would jump on the bandwagon and WWIII would break out. In the meantime, when my youngest was home for spring break last week, I have exact instructions that my other son was not allowed in the house unless I was home. I recommended he can even ignore the doorbell bc unless you live in my house, you have to let me know b4 coming over! Don't feel bad, make sure your "sanctuary" is protected when you are not there. Sad part is, this question would not even come up if we trusted our kids! Listen to your gut. Thinking of you, stay strong. [/QUOTE]
