Getting through the storm

[Mona52]

I have to tell myself this daily, and if I am honest, many many times daily.

You do not need to feel an ounce of guilt for the choices he is now making. You are sending him videos of S, you no longer have to do that. He moved so far away, right? Than it is up to him to drive the distance. He MUST take responsibility for his actions.

Wait, that is not true. It does not matter to you one bit if he takes responsibility. YOU MUST NOT take responsibility for his actions.

I am not telling you to be mean. All I am saying is you should not go out of your way to make it better for him right now.

He will complain. But you are handling his complaining brilliantly so far.

That "okay" you gave him was the most perfect okay in the history of the world!
