"I couldn't allow him to do what he did without consequences... but I never dreamed the silence would last this long." 💔
It is a mother's worst nightmare: having to choose between physical safety and a relationship with her child. In today's episode of The Sally Harris Show, I'm speaking with a brave mom who is living through the aftermath of a critical incident.
After her son pushed his disabled father during an argument, she made the difficult call to involve the police. She believed it was a necessary boundary for safety. Her son viewed it as a betrayal.
Since that day, she has faced total estrangement—blocked numbers, returned letters, and the heart-shattering reality of her son getting married without her there.
In this interview, we discuss:
The guilt of enforcing "hard boundaries" when safety is at risk
Navigating the pain of missed milestones (birthdays, holidays, and weddings)
How to stop the cycle of "re-litigating" the past in your mind
Finding hope when you feel consumed by the situation
If you are a mom who has had to make impossible choices, please know: You are not alone.
