I'm sorry you're here. It must be tragic to have to tell your little boys this. The stubbornness is obnoxious, this is a common theme among all of them regardless of why they want to leave.

I will say one thing. As hard as it will be emotionally, the growth you will experience once he moves out will be much greater than anything you could hope to do if he were still there. Also, it will show him how hard it would be to live without you.

I've gotta say, your name brought me to tears. When my little boy was born almost 4 yrs ago, I started calling my W Momma bear, and shortly thereafter she called me Daddy bear. She was a great Mom, Super Mom in fact, such an inspiration to me and helped me become the Dad I am. Then this crap started in early 2016, and she lost such interest in our son let alone me. At times I see the old Mom come out, and my heart fills with happiness for my boy. Then others, she doesn't seem to care one bit about my keeping him upwards of 6 days a week. I'm just not having a good afternoon/evening I guess.

Sorry if I hijacked your story. I truly am sorry. This place is both heaven and hell. The people here, especially the vets, will give you great advice and help you navigate things the best way possible. I'll try to throw my 2 cents your way when I can.

Be there for your kids. Show them strength and love. They need you more than ever now. My boy has always been a Mommas boy. He's slowly but surely become Daddy's little man. Your kids need you, and more than ever you need your kids. Nothing feels better than hearing, out of the blue, "Daddy I love you."
