[QUOTE="BrokenheartedMum, post: 713518, member: 21851"] It has been 3 weeks and I need to reach out to my son, because we will all be together for my father-in-law's birthday. I want to smooth things over before we are together. But I want to do this without my apologizing. I have some things on paper that I want to say which I think might be a good start, such as "I've missed talking to you, but I was honoring your request. I hope enough time has passed that we can talk it out." I plan to tell him that I will be happy to talk to him but that I will not be his punching bag. I also have my own life and I will not always answer the phone if I am unavailable to talk. I am just wondering if anyone has any feedback before I call him. I am nervous because I want to end this cycle we have been on.... [/QUOTE]
