Hmmm progress for me

So we are away visiting my inlaws. I didnt have my phone with me so my son called my husband asking for something. We hadnt discussed it with my son but my husband and I had agreed to hold back some after his behavior after the vape/bake shop incident.
So my husband told him no... my son got mad.

I was not on the phone.

My immediate reaction was to respond ro him with a text telling him we would talk about it tomorrow on a call with the program. Basically to jump in and engage... which of course would give him the chance to tell me no I dont want to engage with you.

All of a sudden it was like what am I doing? I need to really not engage here. My husband said no (good) and I need to leave it alone and keep backing off. (Good for me) So I did not text or do anything!

100% better than I was but not at 100% yet
I've read here before that WE need to do nothing.

Sit back. Let them figure it out.

When they are using their priorities change from one minute to the next.

It's too exhausting.

How is it that doing nothing is sometimes so hard? Good for you! You are taking back your time and your peace. This is a struggle I have gone through many times.
