[QUOTE="BrokenheartedMum, post: 714053, member: 21851"] So this weekend was when the family was all together to celebrate my father-in-law's 91st birthday and visit him in the hospital. My son ignored me all weekend. It was very awkward. I confronted him the last night as I rode with him and my husband, his Dad, in the car. I asked him why he was mad. He told me I knew why, and I said I really didn't. We rehashed "the incident", and he insisted I owed him an apology. I reminded him that he called me a f%#&!ing witch and that it was HE who owed the apology. He could not see it. I told him that it didn't even matter who was right or wrong, but that he should NEVER speak to his Mother that way. He could not see my side. I tabled it and the silent treatment continued. When he left he refused to even hug me. I am proud of myself for not giving in and apologizing, and I am thinking he may never back down. The good thing is that by not talking to me, I guess he is learning to deal with the little upsets in life by himself, since he doesn't have me to call multiple times a day. I started yoga and visited a therapist and am trying to work on me. I sure hope to one day have a relationship with my son. I don't really have a question this time. Just an update. [/QUOTE]
