Following In His Mother's Footsteps..

I've written a few posts about my 17 year old son and what I feel is a co-dependent relationship with his girlfriend and her verbally abusive family... Yesterday I had had enough after the GFs mom flipped out on the phone at my son and continued even after he said she was on speaker and I was trying to figure out what was going on.

I went over there to confront her... talk about quacking (they don't even drink). This woman is completely out there and what she thinks is "ok" is WRONG! She even blamed us for her 20 year old son (who is in the Marines) not telling her about his girlfriend. We didn't, but that's his job, not ours.

I didn't freak out, like I wanted to, on this woman because my son is standing there in tears so of course I was diplomatic. I also felt that he would see all the BS they where throwing out there. And we would talk about it later...

Guess what he didn't!!! OMG!!! I stood there and let this woman go on and on thinking...listen to this nut job...even tho..she was mocking me... and he thinks everything is great! I am so disappointed in him!!! If I had any idea he was buying what she was saying I would have put her in her place...

I mean she stood there and told him he wasn't good enough for HER daughter!!! Her daughter is one of those clingy pests who doesn't even let my kid have friends and I haven't said one bad thing about the kid!

I feel my choices are limited...I had already told him he wasn't to be around her parents and that they could only go out a couple of days a week... so I've limited contact.. I tried pointing out things she lied about ... but he believes her, not the 10 other people (including me) she lied to... So short of telling him he can't see her... I'm not sure what else to do... Then I think he would just sneak out anyway...Not to mention I also think all the problems from her parents are just driving them together... I don't intend to add to it...

This reminds me of the first guy I married when I was 18...I am praying big time that he ends this!!! Oh well thanks for listening again... With AH I can't even talk to him about this... (well not much of anything)... gosh... I really hate my life sometimes...:wtf2
