There was a pivotal moment when I felt like he wanted to have a relationship with us only on his terms. He would cancel or not show up for something all the time, but if I canceled on him or if I was too busy, he was deeply offended. He would yell at me and insult me. The last time, he was yelling at me on the phone, and I reached a point where I said to him, “I’m going to hang up the phone, because if you can’t speak to me like an adult, then I don’t want to speak to you. When you’re ready to speak to me like an adult, then call me back.” And he never did. And here we are.
