[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 640413, member: 18366"] Even though you probably wouldn't mean it...............perhaps just being friendly and nice and no longer mentioning the "issues" and instead focusing on GS............ask difficult child (after being sweet as sugar) if you can have more time with GS at your house. When not feeling threatened, difficult child's usually, (who don't really want the responsibility anyway) will gladly let some one else "take over" if it seems that [I]they [/I]are doing someone else a good turn. Anyway the point is to get her to think it is her idea to let GS spend more time with you at your house. Sometimes, when people are playing a delusional life of "honesty" we have to get down to their level, play the game at their level in order to get them to think that doing the right thing is their idea.
