I don't think you are totally nuts! But then again maybe other people will think we both are now that I don't think you are! LOL
Thanks for letting me know it's ok not to do anything right now because it is really tough! And yes, they did help create the monster he is right now.
I hope you are right about down the road there will be something to change his course. Because he is all grown up now and living on his own for the first time in his life! Went from Dad's to living with Mother, then girlfriend (had 2 children), back to Mother's then married me, and then back to step-witch and daddy's! That's the part the scares me though, he hated to be alone and has never done it, even when depressed! It has been 7 weeks in his own apartment, I guess the evil step-mother that rules the father had enough of someone living with them!!
When I let mine know that he could come for the rest of his stuff (2 weeks after he left), he didn't take everything either! But then about 2 months later he was calling for his summer clothes. I said what the hell? It's January, when spring comes I will go up in the attic and get them for you when I get the rest of the family's clothes out.
Haven't heard a word about clothes, tools, NOTHING since then!
And we were arguing all of the time on the phone before May 15th (the day of the visitation hearing)so he could have brought it up at any time!
And don't get that part either because in the beginning I kept hearing about his grandfather's tools and I told him I would give them to him.
Have you been in touch with yours? How are things looking for your sitch?
