I like what kml said, just let him know his F is seeing someone, if it comes to that, without saying how long. I am just tired of secrets. My S was 13 when he and I found out at the same time that his F was having and A, otherwise, if things had gone on this long, and his F was distancing himself from him, I would have let him know, so he wouldn't blame himself for his father's behavior. For a younger child, no, but a 14 year old, I think he has probably seen as much as this in his school friends lives. Hopefully, itm's H would have the decency to tell his S himself. Hopefully.
And, yes, mishka, tornadoes sUck big time, and it's only mid-winter. And, since you are in Georgia, we send all our bad weather your way. Sorry
