[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 565913, member: 1550"] My ex can and does use stuff like "when I die" and "your grandmother" to get PastryChef to do what he wants her to do, and that makes it very hard for her to forever say no. He doesn't stop to think of all the memories that will drag up for J. Maybe he really thought S. and J. would reconnect. He is socially clueless and I often think he has Aspergers. the fact is, S. didn't even bring his joined-at-the-hip wife with him and did not call my daughter to invite her to join him. Ex made all the arrangements and probably badgered S. too. Although he obviously still has some control over S., it wasn't enough to force him to try to talk to J. or to be friendly toward her. To ex, a successful, good, wonderful adult child is one who has a million bucks, not one who would do anything for him, as J. would. It's sad for SportsFan and PastryChef because they will never live up to his standards. Ex doesn't care about the kind of person his children are. He just cares about their bottom line so that they will never ask HIM for any money. That's really all he cares about. By far, J. is the mo st caring and compassionate of his three kids (I include S. because he includes S., even though I don't). Terry, thanks for your caring response. [/QUOTE]
