I believe there comes a time when we all have to stop making excuses for bad behavior. Eagle, it makes me so sad for your hubby. He deserves so much more. And not because of the gifts he so generously gave, but because he did so with a good heart.

I'm right there with you on wanting one more minute with Daddy. The time to tell someone you care is NOW folks.

Eagle, I care. And I care for your hubby as well.

It's just not right. Been there, had it happen to me a few times until I said, "You will respect me. I am your Mother and I've earned that place in your heart. Some day I won't be here, and I just hope you won't live with regrets."

Fortunately for me, it hit home.

I pray that his son's heart opens up before it's too late.
