How many of us have adult difficult children we don't talk to?

[QUOTE="DDD, post: 178484, member: 35"] GFGmom and I only talk when she calls me or stops by the house. That is not common. It is, frankly, a HUGE relief not to be absorbed in her drama and only occasionally hear about the "crisis de jour". My easy child son only gets in touch a few times a year in deference to his wife's preferences. We have adjusted to the limited contact and enjoy the visits when they do come to town. Truthfully, in a million years I never would have projected that my husband and I would be as isolated as we are from the other five adult children. on the other hand, I can understand that they resent us raising GFGmom's sons and therefore not having time or money to participate in their lives. We have two easy child daughters who truly "get it" but the others are more isolated than they need to be. Life is strange! DDD [/QUOTE]
