@denisedrinkwalter: When your adult kids are being disrespectful or rude to you try any of these 4 strategies. When you do, you maintain your control and don’t allow them to take your emotions captive. When you react rather than respond, you are buying into the bait they are putting down. Show them that there are better ways to communicate by taking a high road and don’t get sucked into the conversation, trap, power and control mechanism that is being tossed at you. Stepping away doesn’t mean losing power, or indicate that you are weakening your position. It means you have the maturity and ability to make it about communicating and setting a stage for further more fruitful conversation at a later time (could be MUCH later). Share if this makes sense for a friend to hear. Double tap to like. Save for future reference.

No first make it clear to them that you will not tolerate their disrespect and they need to treat you the way they expect to be treated

Number 5 - inform them, not for the first time, that your generational wealth is going to your favourite charity.🤔

Does ‘no response’ just give them what they want? Or ‘tell them’ That by us giving them no response they are ‘right’?

Sometimes they're disrespectful because outside influence is putting them against you.

I only like number 1 and 2. What about letting them know that they are being disrespectful and it won’t be tolerated.

My daughter hasn't spoken to me in four years, it hurt me so bad at first, but it feels like now it's becoming easier to deal with the longer I'm without her, my heart still breaks, but I can't take the hurt she brings my life.

I should've taken this advice with my daughter but now it's too late and we don't speak anymore but in a way it's opened my eyes to who she really is

This only works if you are reasonable, willing to listen and not narcissistic. Sometimes going no contact is the best solution for kids or parents.
