[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 637127, member: 18366"] Gas-lighting - and - revise history as SHE WANTS TO SEE IT! What the truth is doesn't matter and trying to get her to see the truth isn't going to work and is in fact and exercise in futility. and on and on it goes, when you have had enough the chameleon changes to get her needs met and as soon as that is done - rip - off comes the mask you love and underneath the difficult child is seen for what it is again. When you are dealing with the difficult child with the mask you love, you give in but underneath the mask is reality that is never going to change. As for the grandchild - if you are not willing to take on another child - putting the child up for adoption is the only real choice. Having the grandchild is a weapon the difficult child can and does use against you. Just as I know you probably will feel outraged at mentioning adoption - difficult child knows you feel that too. That's the hook that keeps on reeling you in. [/QUOTE]
