That's what I thought you were saying, thank you for clearing that up for me.
In a way, at least with my sitch, it feels like DB is a contradiction, or at best hit-or-miss. Putting my foot down about our S in the past has yielded what seemed to be positive results (her being more willing to talk to me, her opening up about things, etc.). But lately it seems to have the exact opposite effect (her refusing to talk to me at all, not even looking at me, etc.).
I think that's where the confusion comes into play...sometimes it looks like I'm making progress and sometimes it just looks like I'm making her run away faster.
I did get some good news this morning. Her mom called me and asked if I wanted to keep S tomorrow for Father's Day. She had apparently told her mom that I wasn't trying to help her out with him, didn't want to see him, etc. I told her mom I would LOVE to see him, and that I had tried to switch weekends with her, but she didn't want to (which is completely true).
