[QUOTE="TheWalrus, post: 678068, member: 19905"] And things just keep getting worse... Today I get an "angry and accusatory" message from these people about her in their house and how I need to call them. I don't know what she has told them, but apparently I am this horrid, wicked, shameful mother who has turned her child away and they have decided they are going to pick up her cause and let me know my responsibilities. I am a nervous wreck. I am so vulnerable and don't know if I can take angry judgments from people who have taken her in and decided that I need to be put in my place so that I will take her back. I haven't called. I am afraid to. But I cannot avoid them forever, as that makes whatever she told them seem to be the truth. Why would they involve themselves? They don't know me. They don't know the situation. But they have swallowed whatever she has said hook, line, and sinker and are ready to defend this "poor" girl and "get this straightened out" with me. For all I know, she did this on purpose to try to guilt and embarrass me into letting her back in by having some third party bully me. It is possible. She has manipulated this way before, numerous times, to get others to do her dirty work or what she can't accomplish on her own. What do I do? What do I say? Please help me. I have a feeling that ignoring it won't work. It is a very small town and I don't think they will just stop. I am sure they think they are "helping" her bc she has painted me the villain, but they just don't know. And I cannot just throw her under the bus and tell them everything. This is a new level of chaos and hell she is dragging me into. She just never stops... [/QUOTE]
