Remember, you can hear my radio program daily on SiriusXM Triumph and connect with me 24-7 at DrLora.com. Molly, welcome to the program. Hi, thanks for having me. You're very welcome. What's happening? Well, this has been going on for almost four years. I have an adult son who's married with a new baby and I have adult daughter and another son. My daughter and the son that's married got into it at Christmas a couple years, three years back. Okay, slow down. One of your sons and your daughter got into a fight. Yes. And what was the fight about? Well, my child was just taunting. My son was kind of taunting. My daughter just kind of picking at her a little bit and she had kind of... And how old were they when this happened? She was old. 27, 28, 26, 27. Well, is your son kind of a bully in general or...? No, he's not a bully, but he... No, he just likes to... When he was younger, kind of taunt and, you know, a little sarcastic where you're like, okay, enough. Stop. That's enough. Kind of upsetting with him. So he was just kind of picking. My daughter had said, hey, stop. Stop it, stop it, stop it. And she finally blew. And she said some things that were pretty hurtful, but, you know, she kind of went all out. What did she say that was hurtful? Well, she kind of picked on his income. You know, what he was going to do for his job. She's trying to, you know, things like that. Can you just tell me exactly to best of your memory what she said to him? Absolutely. You just said, look, you're, you know, you're going to be working at this job. You're going to be making this much money and, you know, good luck to you. That kind of thing. Taunt. That exact thing to taunt him to get him to shut up. Kind of. We were at a parking lot and got out of the car and, you know, it was obviously like, oh, no, not this. So he had told me he was going to apologize to her, but his fiance at the time was like, no, that was kind of crazy. You know, so. It has never resolved itself and it's been about four years. And I have, I have interjected myself because my son, my son ended up leaving that it was Chris was my son that ended up leaving and going back to where he lives. And it has been an ongoing stress point since. And I'm sorry, are you married to his dad? Yeah, yeah, we've been married for 30 something years. And. Well, what the hell is wrong with your husband? Woohoo. What the hell is wrong with his dad not getting in his face and telling him to be a man and not do that kind of crap anymore and go apologize and mean it. Why didn't your husband do that? And he can still do it. Yeah, he, my husband went to heaven, you know, he was leaving instead of can't believe you're leaving, you know, we're doing all, you know, we have all those Christmas and you're leaving. And my son just left. And my husband is more of a wants to keep the peace type thing, I believe. Oh, you married one of those. Yeah, wants to keep it and limp, Dix limp Dix it doesn't pay off ever to marry a weak guy. No, and I ever. And no, and where I'm at now is that I, this many years later, I vacillate I between eating crow like kind of going, trying to make a resolution with my son and my daughter in law. But they're still right and long and I can't seem to go. I can't be that person that's like, Hey, everything's great, but. That's right, Molly. That's not big. That's right, Molly. Forget the hurt thing. Your son has grown up being a bully. That's a bully. And he got nailed back. Yeah. And then. And he does. He deserved what he got. She finally fought back. Finally. Yeah. Good for her. So, you know what, you have three kids, two of them are reasonable. Yeah. That's how you I need you to think. And that's what I think. Good. But there's time I hurt gets in the way and there is of course I know, but you're going to have to ignore that. Yeah. Yeah. Because that's the part that knows the best knows that. Well, that's the part you have to respect. I like that word. Yes. That's the word that I don't do to myself sometimes when I fall on the sword and go, oh, and I don't like myself. I don't like respect. Respect. Okay. Because there's been a lot of that, you know, when they probably have a baby, he's going to want back in the family and you're going to tell him what's required. He does have a baby brand new eight month old. And didn't make him pick up the phone and want mommy and daddy. Yeah, we all went to see the birth of the baby and then even my daughter and that ended up obviously that's not obviously that ended up okay until it didn't. And I was putting my back burner and she was putting on the back burner again. Well, then the hell with them. I'm sorry. Sometimes the worst people to get along with come from your own family. Sorry. No, I'm glad that you. I'm glad to get the clarity because I've been racking my brain thinking, should I have done this? Should I have not gotten involved? No, no, that would have been. That would have been bad. Bad parenting. Really? And I am being serious. I'm being serious. Let him stew. This is right and this is wrong and that's what that's correct. Thank you. Yes. Yeah, yes. And I have been the only one because I've got a lot of, you know, flat from the family like, oh, that was too. No, there's right and wrong. Molly, if you're the only voice in the wilderness, it doesn't make you. Wrong. Okay. All right. All right. The part I knew was true. Sometimes I grew up with myself right over it. Okay. You got it now. Right. Got it. I got it. And thank you. Thank you. You're welcome. You're welcome. My number 1-800-375-2872.
