Maybe this is a strange analogy, but I think that when you shredded her checks, and less symbolically-- the way you protect your child-- you also shredded the last of the power she holds over you.

That's one way to look at. If it's "hush money", then of course you shouldn't take it. But what if you think of it as "compensation"? Is that possible?

If I'm wrong, please remember: I'm only naive and inexperienced. I'm not condoning anything the aunt has done.
