I think the one thing that really annoys me is the "Creating Camps"  Everytime my daughter discards me, she runs around turning everyone against me.  As she did this time with my oldest son and his wife.  I'm not going to say it doesn't hurt, because it does... he's 25 now, with two children, and even though he knows what his sister is like, he still falls for her lies.

 

The biggest shock he got when he tried to bully me this last time was my telling him that I didn't need him to survive, if he wanted to be part of MY life, he would treat me with the respect I command as a human being as well as his mother. If he couldn't/wouldn't, then he wouldn't be in my life....it's that simple.  I wasn't put on this earth to be stomped on my my kids and I wasn't going to put up with it.

 

So right now, he is learning the true meaning behind "I brought you into this world, I can take you out of this world"  This world being ...*my life*.  A hard lesson to learn...an even harder one to teach.
