Hi Jguy. I had a long answer but you can lead a horse to water , etc Two things I would say , to get validation for your view you asked W !!!!! Who when pushed said yes , she felt you did try to get to her to agree. This is exactly what I said You push until the person appears to agree because it's easier for the person
Secondly you used the line " to stay humble ". Sorry JGuy , that is one term that does not apply to you. I never thought I was harsh just honest with you however I do accept that's how you see me and I have no control over that
I wish you and your son all the best This is a hard time and its a time where the first thing anyone has to be is honest with themselves
