[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 689226, member: 1550"] Walrus, yeah, I'm sorry. With my son it is attachment disorder. He lived in an orphanage until he was six. He had so little sense of family that he once hinted to Princess, whom he was once close to, that he needed a wife and that they could actually marry and have kids since they were not related by blood. Daughter was appalled. "You're my brother! I don't think so! Gross!" (Sigh) I think if I had money, he'd stick around enough to get a piece of the pie, but he would not see me often. He keeps ex on a tight leash and only sees him on his terms. Some people are too damaged or ill to understand the kind of love we have for them. I wanted to say this because there are parents who post or read here who have been dismissed by their adult kids and I know people who were estranged until death. I don't want those parents to feel that our kids always love us because we are Mom and that it is their faults if they can't get those very cruel kids to even throw them a bone. It is not their fault, unless they abused the kids in the true sense of the word. There are many sites dedicated to grieving parents who don't know why their kids said good bye forever. I am glad Copas son loves her. Very happy. But not everyone can claim that. Hey, some parents don't love their kids either. There are no guarantees. Sadly. Some people can't love. Thank you for sharing, Walrus. It must have been hard. Usually, if we are dismissed, it is after our d c meets a person they are infatuated with who won't like us no matter what we try and they tell infatuated d c to cut us off. And they decide SO has a good point, and they are in love, so our problem child finally agrees with love object. This is a common scenario ..suddenly d c thinks we need to be banished. Cutting out money for drug users or just entitled d c is another big reason. Usually there is no explanation given. It IS hard to love another if you don't love yourself. That's where it starts. I call it love-impaired. Some are limited in how much they have to give. Some don't even understand love. But is not our faults. It is inside them. [/QUOTE]
