[QUOTE="nlj, post: 637341, member: 17650"] Hi Sweetmama I get that. The crying that won't stop, the overwhelming sadness. I feel for you. Refusing money and help, and their "OK, I guess not" replies are so laden with our grief. I have to remind myself that it's all manipulation. It's not like we haven't helped them, and some, for years and years. Still they make us feel like we don't care, like we've never done anything for them. Moving him off your cellphone account is good. A positive step for you both. My feelings would be to go with the flow. Cry and cry. It's not a "crying spell with no provocation". We've all got loads of provocation. Crying's good I think. It's cleansing. It's normal. Your daughter has to find her own way to deal with this. Look after yourself. [/QUOTE]
