[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 421219, member: 84"] Yup, you done superb Lucy!! Now as far as your mom goes? Hon you're a grown up, raising your own kids. You don't have to answer the phone because you see your mom's number. If fact, I advise in the future when difficult child is in "trouble" that you totally ignore any phone calls from gramma. If you do feel compelled to answer try this.......Mom, I love you dearly, but [B]BACK OFF[/B]. And hang up the phone. You know why she is calling, she knows why she is calling. She'll get the message. I know that can be hard to do with a parent, but when they're doing their best to undo everything you're trying to do.......you've got to set firm boundaries and start treating them as if they're difficult children too. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
