My main boundary with my 30 yr old Son is when he comes to my house, to drop my groceries off(never visits) I tell him while talking with me, don't yell\swear at me, & he says, I'm 30, I can swear, I tell him, you're not going to swear at me& raise voice to me, he laughs it off, I only see him when he does my errands, I'm home bound with agoraphobia, he says, he doesn't care what my therapist says about boundaries, keeps saying, he's 30, he will yell\swear, it makes me mad& more sad🥺I rely on him for errands, rides to Dr appts, he's only family I have, so I put up with the disrespect of being yelled, sworn at😔

How do you use “I” statements when you need to address the abusive behaviour such as name calling, lying, emotional manipulation, not calling you nor picking up / returning calls, withholding vital information from you, etc.?

And can you ever even have a reasonable conversation with them when their abusive behaviour is clearly deliberate? What motivates them to even listen, let alone change their behaviour when they’ve decided to see you in a negative light for no good reason?

My now adult children have grown up surrounded by narcs giving me bad press so I feel like I’m in a no win situation. They don’t even want to hear my side of the story, and I’m sure that’s because they don’t want to see the narcs in a negative light, so it’s easier to cast me as the villain.
