[QUOTE="DDD, post: 393936, member: 35"] I'm sorry that this week isn't going well. Overall it has sounded pretty positive lately. Hopefully it will return to that state soon for you. I don't think in a zillion years that you and your Mom are going to get on the same page. Limiting contact is about the best I can imagine you can do. There just seems to be too much history. Of course I have no idea what ABC could be that difficult child refers to but really he has not wanted to be parented for a long time. He wants to make his own choices and live the life that he feels is best for him. in my humble opinion, you could be Mother Teresa and he would still want to do his own thing. I think there is a snowballs chance in Hades that he is going to become compliant and honor your guidance. Yes, I understand that he is still a youngster...but he doesn't understand. His behaviors and his attitudes are decidely "conduct disorder" driven. As I said in the beginning I am truly sorry....truly sorry that the future likely isn't going to be what you hoped and prayed for in regard to your Mom and your son. At this stage I am hoping that your independent adult life will evolve to the point where you will have peace and happiness. DDD [/QUOTE]
