What can I say to my sister's?

Question

I talk almost every week to my sisters on the phone. I have 3 adult children 2 live at home. and the other one is on his own. anyways one of my sister's told me i need to move my 26 year old out of my house. well He had moved and now he is back he works and doesn't bother us. what should i say to that sister? then the other sister i told her my son is in rehab and doesn't want to take his time on the weekends to see me his mom he wants to spend it with this new girl i haven't meet and his friends. and yes it hurts me bad. anyways my sister told me that he never like me anyways and we have had are fights over the years like me once throwing him in jail because he hurt me. she said well really my son doesn't get along with me. yeah right i gave him almost everything i had and love at that. we even got along for 4 years. but she blames me for his mistakes. and tells me imam no good mom to him and to leave him along. how can i tell my sister's that they are hurting me and i want to tell it strong to them

Answer 1

Do not discuss your son with your sisters.  If you do you will hear things even if untrue that you do not like.

You are going through pain and feeling the loss of your son.  Since he is in rehab you qualify for Alanon.  You will find other people at Alanon who understand and help take steps to feeling better.http://www.al-anon.alateen.org/english.h...

Answer 2

All you can do is let it out.... Holding in your anger and frustration isn't making you feel any better. She had the nerves to tell you what she thought so now it's your turn... Your son may not be around right now but you have raised him to be the man that he is to day... He is trying to make his own life the only way he knows how... You don't need to justify yours or his actions to her.... Good luck
