Parents of estranged adult children Community Group
One or more of our adult children walked out of our lives and never looked back.
Hello,
My name is Elena. I am a mother of 2 children. My son is 25 and my daughter is 21.
Having terrible problem with my son. He always was a perfect child. Got great education, he is Doctor of Pharmacy. Always caring , loving, sincere. He was my best a achievement , my pride , my best friend.
A little over a year ago he met a girl. They were dating for over six months and we finally met her. We liked her. My son looked very happy. What else mother can wish for?
When we saw her few weeks after she decided not to say hello to us. Then it became worse and worse. We asked our son if we did something wrong or say something wrong to her. He said no. She was acting disrespectful to us , talking over us, being rude to us. We said to our son that if she can't behave respectively she is not welcome to our house. My son took her side and become disrespectful to us also.
Next thing we know she turned him against us. My son from being normal person turned out to be monster. Few months later they got married. He told us if we will not show up on wedding we will never see him again. We went to wedding, didn't see any other options for us. Before wedding she came to our house and insulted us more by telling us that our blessing are not needed and that we are sick on the head few to mention.
We are still trying to have some kind of relationship with them but it is not working. We r not welcome to their apartment, our son only calling us when he needs something. He became someone we don't know anymore. He is not talking to his sister but calling her when he needs something from her.
We live with constant pain. It is unbearable . I need to learn to live with this pain but I don't know how.
I am crying every day most of the day. I don't know what to do anymore
