Goddess help me, another counseling appointment in regards to SS and his enabling mother. We're supposed to do the Five Languages of Love type thing but the issue of his family needs to be addressed again. SS called DH from prison and wanted to talk and I answered the phone saying, "No. You may not talk to your father. You don't care about him anyway. When you start getting your act together and stop being a selfish (insert raging curse words), then you can talk to him. When you do start getting help and start making something of yourself, then he might come and visit."

Then I hung up.

I know I probably should NOT have said anything however I feel as if I were protecting my DH from any more pain that child has caused. My DH doesn't know that I did this nor am I going to tell him. I figure that MIL will tell him how much of a ***** I am which I don't care. She can rant and rave all she wants...just wait until the book comes about Enabling I ordered from Amazon for her to read.

If DH calls me on it, I'll just say, "The counselor has told you what is going on with your son. I know you love him but love is not enough to cure his sociopathic behavior. We need to concentrate on us; he's an adult and made his own decisions in life. Let him go..."

I know I probably stirred the cauldron a little too much however, enough is enough. People aren't stupid but pretend they are. That stupidity has caused too much damage and I'm not going to let SS destroy my DH any longer...
