[QUOTE="mrsammler, post: 486748"] You describe my orientation to my nephew difficult child perfectly: former avuncular love curdled into cold & lasting contempt over the course of 15 months of constant verbal abuse, tantrums, rants, name-calling, manipulation, and occasional physical attacks, not to mention the drug use/selling, household theft from his mother and brother, destruction of household property, ceaseless lying, etc etc. I left in May '10 with a firm resolve never to see him, hear his voice, or be anywhere near him for the rest of my life, and I still feel that way today: good riddance to the vile pest. I hear he's still carrying on like this at 19 and I am SO glad I cleared out of that situation, never to return. Mother love, of course, is very durable and all that, and I understand that--but my uncle-love is GONE and, like you, when I recall of the !@#$ I & others endured from him, I just feel a cold anger and contempt for him. Which is why I almost never think about him anymore. This is what they do to you. [/QUOTE]
