It's hard to say. This is one of those posts where more info is needed.

What are the lies?

YouHaveNotFuckedUp · 27/06/2025 23:51

Yes yes. Next!

What are the lies ?
What are the truths?

Is it a real truth or "your" truth?

TinyTempest · 28/06/2025 00:00

No idea.

But I voted YABU for the annoying lack of information.

It depends on what they're doing to manipulate him 🤷‍♀️

Rather than expecting everyone to advance search you, it would be better to actually type the problem since you've started a thread.

ASeriesOfTubes · 28/06/2025 00:25

We're supposed to trawl through everything you've ever posted and try to distil out of it what you might be referring to here?

Ain't nobody got time for dat

WaxingGibbon · 28/06/2025 00:27

Based on the limited and dull info provided thus far I imagine most people won’t be interested enough to advance search

ScrambledSmegs · 28/06/2025 00:27

I thought it was considered rude to AS posters. Blissful ignorance is the goal.

DiscoBob · 28/06/2025 00:28

In what way is your son being manipulated? How old is he, and what does he think?

If someone is hurting you then stop contact with them. By all means tell them the reasons why you're doing so. But then stick to your guns and keep your distance.

wizzywig · 28/06/2025 00:31

Too much drama op. Ditch them and be free

Would've been handy if you'd answered the first 3 questions in that quote.

Yeah, you're not enlightening us any more with that response sadly. You need to be much more specific, please?

Ok, my family manipulate my autistic son, hes 25

They joined forces with my abusive ex

I have an eating disorder and I am regressing so much now I can feel my heart beating outside my chest

I am a good person, they are not good people

I need to stop being such a doormat

Tell me not to be such a doormat :)

TinyTempest · 28/06/2025 00:57

How are they with your 27 year old son?

Do they manipulate him too?

You're asking for help, but you expect us to do the research?

I gave up and did some.

I'm still none the wiser really.
