[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 597289, member: 1550"] Thanks to all. Barbara, special thanks to you. Interesting development. Without discussing what I had texted to him, 35 called and did not abuse me once. He even waited for me to finish speaking without interrupting me. I don't know how long it will last, but I guess I have to keep getting off the phone if he gets abusive. It is like training a small child how you expect that child to behave. It is very frustrating at his age. Thanks for understanding, everyone. I am VERY grateful he lives in Missouri!!! I had tickets to see my grandson and for the t third year in a row I canceled them. He doesn't know I was even coming, because I didn't tell him. I'm not going to waste my time buying tickets from now on. His "I will kill you. You will be dead" will be imbedded in my head forever. Who says that? It's not worth the risk of going there, even though he probably doesn't mean it. But if he loses it....well, I'd rather live to see my grandchildren-to-be and to be a foster mom to other little kids who need me. [/QUOTE]
