[QUOTE="witzend, post: 565955, member: 99"] I'm proud of J for going, and hope that she'll never fall for that again. She is old enough to make her own decisions about this, and she has now met her father's requirement to try. I can see this all as clear as day. Your ex will feel "Well it wasn't [I]that[/I] bad. It can only get [I]better.[/I] We should do it again." I hope that she won't. If he loves her, she'll accept that she doesn't want to. It's not evil or bad that she doesn't want to see her brother, it just is. She could probably avoid it by saying, "Of course we'd [I]love[/I] to see brother and his family! I hope that he will come to our house for a Father's Day dinner." After all, she met him on his terms, now it's time for him to meet her on [I]her[/I] terms if it means that much to him. [I]That[/I] ought to shut him up. She can say it with great confidence that the answer will be "no", and she can assure dad that any time they all want to change their minds, they should let her know but she has spoken her last word on the subject. There's something wrong with that kid. He'll [I]never [/I]be able to meet you or your family on your terms. That's [I]his[/I] problem. Your ex is pitiful for only seeing the monetary wealth in his son and not the internal wealth of the rest of you. It reminds me of my dad. It's sick. He and his son deserve each other. [/QUOTE]
