[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 296324, member: 1233"] Sweetie, I totally understand the dysfunctional element. My family is dysfunctional in different ways but they can be almost equally hurtful. You are totally right that so much doesn't make sense. Until it makes sense, and the boy has been evaluated by a psychologist and a neuropsychologist and a child and adolescent psychiatrist. No way is he ready to come to your home. I wonder what kind of pressure your sister's kids are putting on her to get him the heck out of their home? I know that you still love your son, but it must be so hard to see him pull away simply because you expected him to be a decent person. I know how hard it was to send my son away and he was very violent to me. It still was like ripping my heart out and stomping on it. To have him do things like ask you out for mother's day to get you to sign emancipation papers? I don't know how you stood it. I really don't. My heart goes out to you. To have your sibling turn against you to the point she is aiding in ruining your son, well, it makes my heart ache just imagining it. Stay the course. Do NOT let him come home. Change the locks if you have to (if he or sister or anyone has a key he could use). It is time now to protect your home, your easy child (especially easy child - you have NO idea all the things difficult child probably did to hurt him. I could tell stories that would make your hair stand on end), and your marriage. Keep posting here when you need support. Or ideas. Be aware that difficult child may decide to just waltz in and set up his nest. You may have to keep the house locked up even when you are home to keep him out. Lots and Lots of Chocolate, gentle hugs, and margaritas! [/QUOTE]
