I am open for suggestions on how to speak with her about the cancellations without it coming off as accusatory.

I, in the recent past 3 years concentrated how to broach other negative implication subjects and she still seemed to feel i was blaming her or making her feel guilty. I would enhance that was not my goal but that is how she felt.

That's over the phone. Face to face, she withdraws and shuts down, and i am not trying to act as parent to child, but adult to adult. That's my very biased opinion of my comments to her.

Do i set forth consequences if she cancels?

I don't want to deny a visit if it is scheduled and agreed to. Specific days didn't get followed up on from our original agreement 1 month after she left.

Our son is Sooo looking forward to seeing her too.
