Oldest DS is the best. Insert heart emoji!!We talked for 15 minutes (that's a long time with a 16 y/o) and it was good.Moral of the story: A parent can worry and try to keep the bond strong between a child and the other parent but in reality it is each parents job to show their child/children that they come first.I thank you all for your words and advice and have agreed to take my son's advice: "you can't give me what he took away but keep being you because you're the best".
