My ds is 13, my ex (his dad) is a complete waste of space (as far as fathering goes). We're both remarried with other children, he lives 3/4 of a mile away and has seen ds ONCE in the last six months. And that was only because he dropped his dc at his mothers whilst ds was there. Now I think my ds has grown used to the ex's complete indifference to him over the years, lord knows he's had plenty of practice. But last weekend, the BIL (who works with the ex) informs us that the ex is emigrating with his family!! I've not said anything to ds, yet and quite frankly I think the ex should tell him but, I have a sneaking suspicion that the reason he told BIL is so that he doesn't have to!! Yes he really is that callous. What on earth am I going to do. Apart from the fact that it couldn't come at a worse time, he's bloody 13 for crying out loud, hello Mr Ex, puberty, I'm just really worried that ds is going to be so hurt and upset by this. Has anybody else been in this position? I would be so grateful for some advice, I'm so with the ex, I could swing for him, I really could.
