Ascending, it sounds like the boundaries you set up have been successful and I’m so glad to hear your son is complying. He was ready for a change, apparently and that’s definitely a good thing, especially at his young age.
Stay strong and don’t let him fall back into old patterns of disrespect and manipulation. Keep us posted on his progress. It’s heart-warming to hear your story and I look forward to hearing more. It gives us all hope. Many more blessings to you.
