[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 741333, member: 1550"] Ask yourself if you would feel better in any way if you saw tour son. Im serious. Because your life is about YOU now and if it will ease your heart at all to see him, even if it ends poorly, then I say do it. My sweet hub and three super kids always tell me to cut off Bart. They mean as in never talk to him again, block him, pretend he doesnt exist. I cant. I can cut down but not off. As difficult as he can be (although he controlled himself the last time) i cant never cut him off. He is awful sometimes and I love him. He is my child. Now this does not mean I plan on seeing him in person a lot. I havent seen him in years. St. Louis is hard to get to from here and frankly I dont know that its a good idea to go. I barely know my grandson because his ex cut off his family and he wouldnt fight her. And then he moved. And he is afraid to drive outside of where he.lives and he won't take a train etc.So seeing him often is unlikely. Its for the best. But the thought of NEVER talking to him again is intolerable to me so I do. I do it for me. When it becomes a huge stress I take time off. He isnt here, close. It helps. But I need to talk to him. Until I cant. Then IItake a vacation from him. But Ican not never hear from hom again. You dont have to either if it hurts too much. You can see J. just to not feel as if you abandoned him. Just to make sure he is alive. For any reason. Any or none. I am not telling you to do it. Just saying you CAN do it if it may make you feel better. And you dont have to do it too. I hope your hurting heart finds peace tonight. You are doing the best that you can. [/QUOTE]
