[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]There are abusive parents out there who come to online forums for "help" and OP does not fit the pattern. The pattern of abusive parents: They "have no idea why" the child has a problem. The child was "always difficult." Nothing is ever the parent's fault. The child is somehow defective. [/b] OP has been very forthcoming, and this is the odd case where I think it's the kid (genetic personality disorder). [/quote] Why would you assume those are abusive parents?[/quote] A study of estranged parents showed that they all "had no idea" despite having written or texted correspondence telling them. I am talking about the types who show up even though not invited, who harrass grandchildren even though asked to step back, etc. You can assume they were abusive, just from present behavior ( not respecting boundaries) as much as the fact they are cut off. Abusive means emotional/mental as well as physical/sexual.[/quote]
