Hi. It goes against every law of nature to walk away from our own flesh and blood.....but they are disordered and in order for us to survive their madness, we have to do these things. I can only imagine how miserable this must have made you......but it had to be done.
The ultimate guilt threat.suicide......well, sad as it is, if he is going to do it, nothing and nobody will stop him.
I have similar problems with my mother too. She was the first one to point me on the pyschopath road, she saw it first, but she is older and whenever things calm down, she gets a bit sentimental and starts the...well maybe she grew up by now stuff...I think my mother thinks this way aswell cos she wasn't directly targetted by P kid.I was..and we don't really see it 100% til we are the victim.
Pson ranted and raved cos he couldn't get his own way..a teenage tantrum maybe?.......You stick to what you know is best for you.
P kid here would never give her game away and tell you what she was going to do, she would tell you when she is nice she is at her worst......nobody would know how deadly she was going to be until afterwards....so, hopefully your son will have blown himself over with all the yelling and may not take anything further..also, my daughter would try to get someone to do her dirty work also....hard as it may seem, if you think the threats are real, you may have to go along the police/court route with him. good luck.
