On that note, Gardener, how is your son? What are you doing to help him during this time? You have gleaned a wealth of wisdom from this forum and the DR books. He might not want it, but please share it with him. Be a dad and help him through this difficult time. Blood is thicker than water.
My son is reacting better than I did: no pleading, begging, ILYs.From the beginning he took it as a wake up call to improve himself (the WAW bomb), he's a bit pissed since she filed. He both lived with me for 10 months this year and worked for me 2-3 days a week and was a great comfort to my sitch. I have already begun re-paying him in spades re: his sitch.
