The hard part is setting boundaries, but even harder is maintaining them (darn pesky MLC’ers………..).

Now that I don't want any contact from him he will try to make contact with me through D13.
Very typical - how a teenager can call you every name in the book, until they realize you have the car keys...................
Detaching is difficult and with kids involved - you end up with some contact. So you keep working at it - like MLC, none of this is easy and it all takes time. Don't rush yourself and don't beat yourself up - life is lived, one day at a time.
KDK – I think you are doing good, some MLC’ers are just a little harder to shake then others (funny – they want time and space – but some are even more afraid you will get yours also).
This has been a turning point to a better M. In 25 years will either of us will remember much about this time? Because in 50 years neither of us will remember much of anything.
