[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 754592, member: 23706"] A 34 year old does not need Mom when he has the flu. If he really has the flu. They often lie to have us panic and give in, call, rush over etc. Money is often the end game. If we feel sorry for them, maybe we will give them something. Been there/ done that with Kay. They never call to share good news or to ask how WE are. The few times I was really sick when Kay called or came over and wanted to talk about herself, she said, "So? You're not dying. What a baby you are." Maybe your son would have more compassion. I hope so. It is no longer hard for me not to communicate with Kay or to even read her social media. Now she blocked me, but if I really needed to look, she has not blocked other relatives and I could look. I don't want to. What she did to my grandson is hideous and I don't even know what I'd say to her. I am done suffering at her hands. Right now, the way she is living and with how she treated Jaden I feel mostly as if I want to not hear her. This is a path we walk individually. There is no timetable and some parents can never detach. If I did not have a great husband and two other special grown kids and Jaden as evidence of Kay neglecting a child, I do not know that I could have detached. I count my blessings every day. I need to be healthy for my loved ones who are healthy too and value me. Blessings to all. [/QUOTE]
