[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 654893, member: 18958"] Hi CaliforniaBlonde This was enough to stop me in my tracks: THAT SHE CAME TO YOUR JOB.... Breaking all contact hardly seems an overreaction. It may have been illegal, what she has done. She has impersonated you and broken legal contracts in your name. As a starter, I would put alerts on accounts. There even may be a way to put verbal passwords in place, so that providing identifying information, stuff that a Mother would know, is not enough to gain access to your personal business. What you have written is a real shot over the bow, to me. I have meddled in my adult son's life, with a mild case of the attitude your mother has taken towards you. Seeing it in another mother-child relationship, I see it as disrespecting, and absolutely dysfunctional on the part of the Mother. From my way of thinking you are justified in doing WHATEVER you need to do to stop her. Her tale of woe, crying, whimpering and casting of fault and responsibility onto you is manipulative and TOO MUCH. She kids no one. This is abusive. She is breaking the law. I remember after my son had his brain injury. I so wanted him to be able to keep his job. He didn't care that much. He abandoned his job. I tried to get it back. I went with him to his work place to try to intervene. The director of the hospital said to me: xxx is my employee. My dealings are with him and I will deal only with him. I was mad and felt disrespected. Clearly he was right. I had felt justified because I wanted to, needed to protect my son. I wish my son had been strong enough to stop me. Perhaps he will get there, now. [/QUOTE]
