I think that if there is a relationship, no matter how little, that's better than nothing at all right? Be hopeful that things will get easier, PATIENCE PATIENCE PATIENCE is the most important. One phone call a month, better than nothing at all. In time it could turn to two or three and eventually maybe talking everyday.

Hi, this is the point - I don't think there is much point in having a "little" relationship - random texts that I reply to and then my bchild doesn't reply to my reply - it's pointless and frustrating. I know other bmothers who get random emails from their bchildren or simply those joke emails - no message attached - just a forwarded joke email. How long do some of us accept these relationship crumbs? That is the question that we are asking ourselves.
Brandy - thanks for your honest reply. So if your bmother said "I want more contact but I know you don't want that so I am going to cutting contact." - then this comment from her would obviously not bother you in the least?
