My S8 told me yesterday that the STBX blames me for everything. He said don't worry that's just how girls are. He went on to tell me how a girl I his class blames him for everything too. He is hilarious at times and I think he makes things up to tell me. In his own way he is trying to make me feel better. Both of the boys say that the want to come home. It makes me so mad that they are having to live like this.
It's awesome that your son is trying to make you feel better. I really get upset too when I think about how the separation and pending divorce are impacting my sons. They're completely innocent, yet they share in the pain. That stinks.
Good for you for taking some time off and taking time with your children. Have fun!
