Thanks Anotherjen. Your story does sound very familiar. We've had to call the cops ourselves several times. Thanks for being able to identify. It helps to know that I'm not the only one who is burdened with this struggle.

I too have stopped all contact with my mom and am deeply considering a number change. I've decided to not allow her to ruin my life any longer. She is the one who will be loosing out and I can only gain from such a decision.

I wish you all the best. You have yourself and your children to think about. It's never too late to take back your life.
