Well, I am sure your ladies here will let you know that your email is perfectly worded, and needed. You can't live in limbo forever, even if limbo is tension-free. I will be thinking of you.
My son is 10 he has not riden a bike. I can't hold onto him and run along side because of my leg. My W could but does not. Anyway my son tonight decided he wanted to learn sooo I went outside with him and held him up and walked along with him to get him used to it. It’s about 80 here and the front door was open and I saw my W watching us. Then I took him to the top of our driveway. It has a slight hill to it. I held him up and gave him a push. He went about 10 feet and fell. I asked him if he was ok he said yes. I asked if he wanted to try again he said yes. So we repeated it and again went about 10 feet and fell. We did this several times. He started crying. I told him it takes getting used to riding a bike. I looked and my W had left. I told him you will feel it leaning one way then you lean the opposite way until you can get control. I told him let me adjust the wheel for him to make it easier. (I just loosened the nut and then tightened it again). We went back up the drive way and I held him up and said it should be easier not that I adjusted it. Are you ready? He said yes. I gave him a push and off he went about 100 feet. He did not fall down he just stopped. He was sooo excited. I gave him a hug and asked if he wanted to try again of course he did and off he went. I called for my wife to come out and she said I can't Dancing with the stars just started. I told her never mind and took my son back to the top and she ended up coming to the door just then and saw him and said that was great and then went back to her show. The good news is that I think by tomorrow my son will be riding good. The bad new is I think I hurt my self. Smal sharp pain in my incision. It is most likely nothing but I had to vent about my W attitude. She is great helping with home work but she does not know how to play or be excited like a kid. Sorry I’m just venting it was kind a big step for my son and she kind of took the wind out of it for me. She is not bad. Just does not know how to play. (Except with married me) Sorry I had to throw that in

I'm excited for your son, but so disappointed in your wife. I taught both of my girls to ride their bikes. She's not a very hands on mom is she? One thing my girls always did is they wanted to look down at their feet when they were peddling, but they were only about 5 so that may not be a problem with your son. So be sure to tell him to look straight ahead instead of down.
I sure hope you didn't reinjure yourself.! I'm a fan of Dancing with the stars, but dangit I'm bigger fan of my girls!

I know it is not really a big thing. But it just hit a nerve. I'm just venting She is helping him with his home work right now. Don't worry Sara if anything is wrong in the morning I'll call the doc. I don't think anything happened. It only bothers me when I turn a certen way. I just won't turn that way.

I think on Mark's thread we were discussing how our WAS's have a lot of traits in common. My male coworker (45 yrs old) is recovering from the A his wife had a year ago. She was the same way with her kids, quite standoffish, putting her needs first, allowing my friend to do the hands on/touchy stuff. She wouldn't even seek her kids out at night for kisses/hugs before they slept. Anyway, I know your W isn't that way, but it just reminded me of that.
You make a call to the doctor if you are bothered tomorrow.
I am mad at your W for not stepping in and helping, or even standing outside to support him.
