Hey , I'm so sorry you r going thru this. Not seeing you on mother's day bc mother in law more important. Nonsense . Sounds like the gf is a chip off old block of mom. Sounds like sons gf is a well....brat. idk best advice other than talk to your soon about how you'd like to be with him more , or make plans to take walks, lunches , etc things that don't break the bank. Invite son and gf or if gf doesn't come just son. Start to do all you can to make effort to be with son away from this so he can make sure it's what he wants . You are his mother , you deserve to be held high

Re: I judge.
My parenting style and experience has nothing to do with this. I don't care if you hate AP and want to bash it, but hate it for what it is and don't get your nose out of joint when you get called out for spreading misinformation.
Why don't you do some more reading. The top 10 discipline principles from Dr Sears include "setting limits & providing structure" and "expecting obedience".
I'm just thinking that all that research must really be cutting into your beingabitch time. But it's certainly helping your cause.

I don't know, but I wish we would soon!! I worked as a marine biologist on the Jersey Shore, you wouldn't BELIEVE how many diapers make up water pollution in the ocean. It's all the plastic!!! Saw lots of dead sea turtles due to plastic consumption. A one ton leatherback died because of a plastic bit the size of a marble lodged in it's lower intestine.
Yes, I'm sounding like a tree-hugger, judge if you must.
