Hi @sadmom1, it is great that you find the support here really valuable. We love having your apart of our forums.

I am sorry to hear that your eldest son was the target of abuse from your ex. It must have been a really tricky situation for him to try and navigate. It is great that your eldest son can confide in your youngest son though - it is important to have a great support network. Hopefully he is able to engage in therapy when he feels ready.

It also must be hard for your family to deal with your ex reaching out again. This is where boundaries can definitely be tested and it can add a lot of pressure and stress.. especially at this time of year. How do you find yourself managing this kind of behaviour? It must be really challenging.
