I understand your conflict about this. If she just needed you to act as a father here, she wouldn't have laced her e-mail with "I need you", "I'm aching to see you", "I love you", etc. This is about her. If you feel you should take some action with her to address the situation with your SS, then definitely do it, but you could make it clear to her this is about HIM, not HER.


Thought about this one since last night and I'm going to choose not to respond. SS is an adult and if he wants me to know, he will tell me. And you are correct, the wife should not have sent me that email in the context that she did. If SS needs or wants advice or assistance, I'm sure he'll let me know. It sounds as if she is using this as an excuse to contact me instead.
