[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 743053, member: 22877"] Except friendship is a two way street. My friends and I share about our lives, our kids, our pets. My son tells me very little about his every day life and if I ask him about something I usually get grunts or one word responses. If I mention something I'm doing or interested in I also typically get grunts or one word responses unless it is something that directly affects him. He's extremely self-centered and self-involved and everything else is secondary. But it is what it is and this is the reality of my relationship with my son. It is not likely to ever change significantly. I've given up expecting "friendliness", "courtesy" or "respect" and now will settle for simple civility. [/QUOTE]
