Thanks U! I hope freedom is on the horizon for you, too.
With the start of a new thread, I forgot to say a big hi to our friend OwnIt-- so glad to see you back here! Your lovely post gave me a welcome boost last week. I hope you stick around again.
Back to my sitch. X picked up S2 this morning as usual. I reviewed my email and sent it. Not long after, I received a response and it was more of the same nastiness:
"Yet again you've gone back on your word" "I will be taking S2 two years in a row to make things fair" "You know as well as I do that 5pm changeover means that S2 will be tired and grumpy and have to go straight to bed"
Which is all nonsense. The irony of being chastised for not honouring a prior agreement, let alone one that doesn't exist, by him!
All I can do is reiterate what was said in the previous email, I suppose. X is due to bring S2 back in two hours, so I think I'll wait to respond until he is back in my care. Or maybe later in the week. I still fear his reactions. But he knows that I'll go back to communicating through my L if he is abusive or aggressive, so we'll see.
