[QUOTE="Doddlin, post: 363783"] Oh My. Star and MattsMom.... you have an Ex like me. Horrible. My 16 year old (will be 17 next month) just moved to the idiots house last week. Guess he figures the grass is greener over there too. Sad. I think that over the years of watching his Dad abuse and disrespect women has rubbed off on difficult child#2. I figure this is why he is becoming so disrespectful of the main 'woman' in his life, me. I tried so hard to change the family tree with my boys. (difficult child#1 and difficult child#2). Very involved of course... probably too much so. They were A/B students until late HS with difficult child#2. Both are Eagle Scouts, etc. Dang. What happened? I figure it's like I said. They have a terrible role model as a father (ad nauseum) who taught them that women are your problem, the answer is to force your way with taunts, intimidation, disrespect, manipulation, etc. When that doesn't work... create a blow-out and leave to see if they chase you and beg you back. Not this time. He is on his own to figure out what Ex is really all about. It's not Mommies job to make up for and fix. Hugs to you Star. This is all for a purpose I am sure of it! [/QUOTE]
