Now what?

I agree with you tl2.

I'm no expert, but I think that whole "unified front" thing is kind of BS. My boys are 18 and 15, and I am pretty sure they will see through that charade. They have been part of this family for years. Neither are super close to H, he just doesn't want to be the bad guy. It was his dream/job promo that brought us here, taking them away from their friends and family.
Thats why I wanted to be in on the convo. I hadn't decided exactly what I was going say, but I thought I had until after Christmas. Well when my son told me he knew, he said H told him "we just grew apart." I replied "It was his choice to leave. This is not a mutual decision by any stretch."

Actually, I think he thinks he has the hard part done...telling me. We have not even begun! We now have to tell our youngest whom he loves. loves , loves! And I can imagine packing his things and walking out the door ain't no easy task either.
