[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 636185, member: 15473"] I think it was a gut reaction to not wanting pain. Just like sticking your arm out to protect your child when you slam on the brakes. Its something you just do without thought. I'm sorry that your gut reaction to difficult child is so visceral. It feels like we don't love them when we don't react or we react in a manner to protect ourselves. It seems cold to the rest of the world but you wouldn't lay down in the road and get run over time after time. You would figure out how to react differently and avoid the car in order to protect yourself. Hanging up is the same thing. You have realized that talking to your son is painful and your reaction is to avoid the calls and protect yourself. [/QUOTE]
