[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 178385, member: 1498"] Funny how when the fathers walk out, it's the mothers who get hit with the anger. But there's no one else. Whenever my son and I are together, I can count on there being a long conversation about how he never felt like his father loved him. Sometimes we have those conversations on the phone. My son is ten years older than your son and my ex walked out when my son was over 18 (but still not functioning). It is hard on kids when they believe/realize that a parent doesn't care....or never cared. Could be that you're being tested with some of this. Is he trying to see if your love is unconditional? Does he feel unworthy of your love and support and is trying to drive you away? Is he trying to quit you before you quit him? Has he talked about his feelings about his father with any doctor or therapist? [/QUOTE]
