Ava's Email:
You are willing to speak to some people who can help you and help our relationship?
I Replied:
You seem to think I need help. In what area? You forget that I'm an adult and can choose my path in life and I'm sure that's what any counseling will tell you.
`
You think I can't tell anyone how to live their lives, well, no one can tell me how to live my life either. I'm surrounded by people who believe they can control me by insisting I give them the upper hand and, therefore, I'll do everything they tell me to do, including yourself. I'm no one important, you say! I deserve to be treated like an impisil and expected to grovel at every one's feet?
`
I keep telling you and Monica that I don't have to ... and I have no intention of ... being "nice" to that ex-husband of mine. He's all in my past and if I never see him again, I deserve it! What does this have to do with my relationship with my children?
`
I doubt I'll ever see my relatives again either. With family like this who needs enemies?
`
Who's controlling who here? You, them, everyone but me. I want to know where I can reach my children and I want to visit with them occasionally. Is this too much for a mother to ask? If you want to meet at counseling, that's fine as long as you foot the bill because technically, I'm unemployed.
`
Love,
`
MOM
