[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 663565, member: 17635"] These attempts at contact by Difficult Child are always a bit disconcerting for husband and me. Within a thirty minute time span last night, husband received a call from a number with the area code from the part of the state 34yo Difficult Child is currently residing in. Then, a call from the state he [B]was[/B] living in. husband did not answer either. The callers did not leave a vm. Within a few minutes, my cell lights up with one of the #'s, and next a text from another one which read, [I]Suppose you blocked your eldest son number....How can you call yourself a Christian? [/I] I blocked each # on my phone (after Googling the #'s - no luck). husband does not want to block anybody. In the past, I have blocked Difficult Child's #, but unblocked it after about six months. If I was not 100% certain the calls are for money (interestingly enough, recent attempts by Difficult Child to contact us were around July 1 and August 1), and would most assuredly include his same old tactics of bullying, shaming or whatever other tricks he might have, blocking would not be my first choice. I found this forum almost two years ago. It amazes me that Difficult Child is still pretty much where he was then. Still not self-supporting and still looking to his parents for help. We have not given him one cent during this period. And, he has not gotten any nicer toward us. Thankfully, husband and I have made some progress in those two years. :) ....and we are going over our plan (again) --- if he shows up at our door. Thanks for listening. SS [/QUOTE]
