[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 456017, member: 2211"] Personally, I think you did the right thing, kind of like the cold hard smack in the face to snap him out of it. Also, so what if you bent his feelers a little? Despite his issues, he needed to hear the cold hard truth. And you can use this experience in the future, as in, 'hey, do you remember what we talked about the last time you behaved like this?' or maybe once he's feeling back to his usual self you can have a warmer discussion without the frustration and anger. Don't beat yourself up, it's likely he's maybe mulling things over in his head and that may be a good thing. Hugs, mom. [/QUOTE]
