[QUOTE="detachingmother, post: 681678, member: 20063"] I wonder if Penny From the Block is still around. You seemed to say what I was thinking much better than I could formulate right now. Baby girl isn't here yet. She is also going to be my first gbaby. On the way, end of April. My son is a lot like yours in the demanding money, being snarky, tries to use threats of not seeing gbaby a few times if I don't become an ATM again, threatens suicide, etc. I know it's coming, what your dealing with...however, I am leaning toward detaching completely, since I know I could still see the baby, and the baby will be at the girlfriend's parent's ( who aren't that great, but they aren't that bad either--we all have faults). There's a big difference, in that he is incarcerated right now, but due out to go to court ordered inpatient, then out by probably the time the baby is 3 or 4 months. not really expcting that rehab will help anything, since it is forced. Have you figured anything out? Any advice or what you did or wished you had done differently, etc? How are things going now? I've been searching and searching for more help online. Not finding much on Google. Thank you again, Leafy, you have been helpful. Very much so. :) Just feel like I am losing control of my own life again. [/QUOTE]
