I've got to spend Christmas morning with this woman (for the sake of my S).

What do I do guys? How am I mean to feel?
Honestly, it won't be easy. Everyone says to make it about your son, and that is THE best thing you can do. Remember, your son will feed off of you, so you have to fake it the best you can. Will it be easy? Not in the least. I had to do the same thing last Christmas with my ex and her sister at the house. It's all about the kids and make it so. Be nice to her and maybe even treat her like a business acquaintance, because really that's all you can do - fake it, whatever, but don't bring any negativity into it even if you can't stand the sight of her. This time is about your son and he will recognize and remember tension. Be his rock. He needs you to be the absolute best and strongest that you can. There are no other options.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
