Thanks for the confirmation Smileless, I really hope my middle son will get the help he needs. Unfortunately I can not do anymore than I have done and we are at a stage where anything I do that's kind is massively disrespected. I am relieved he's not speaking to me in a way because the one way relationship and all the verbal abuse was grinding me down.
I do miss my GS and hope that things can in time be resolved. I don't expect a reconciliation with my ES as I believe his father has coercive control over him and he is also married to a controlling wife!
I feel sorry for my DIL. She has sent me some messages but I think something is being lost in translation. I am able to understand some of what she says, like she doesn't like anger and wants family harmony. I think she will do anything my son says because she is scared he will take the baby. He already took him away when he was a week old because he didn't want HER parents to meet him for the first time. I only found that out last month...Poor girl, she has no one in this country apart from us- and him. But he is very jealous and controlling, so is unlikely to allow her to talk to anyone- and because of covid they won't have opportunities to mix at all.
