[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 509739, member: 11001"] Yes I have had this situation. I have found no way to turn around another human who has deeply engrained beliefs. I live in a very religious communittee, indeed city. I am of the predominant faith, but was raised in a home with 2 faiths and therefore not typical of the religion. Both my children were outcasts from the local kids who go to church with us. Neither child wants anything to do with the faith now. The church tolerates me. husband hasn't gone is years. I understand how hurt you and your boy must be. I would not turn the tables at this point. Let your boy go over there and continue to support their friendship. Good luck to your neighbor because the closets of all neighbors stink! What will she do when her stench is released or leaked to the neighborhood? None of us is perfect and I'm affraid she will medal over and over until she forces her own kid to rebel. I would back off from your relationship. She is a fair weather friend. I just do not have emotional energy to waste on someone like this. by the way, this happens over and over to those of us with difficult children with both friends and family-very isolating. ((Hugs)) [/QUOTE]
