My eldest who’s 16-year-old son. He secured a place at the ideal local sixth form — just a 10-minute walk away and really well-regarded. I got him everything he needed, including a new suit. He went in for induction at the start September, but the very next morning he simply wouldn’t get up and kept refusing to go. When I got home from work that evening, I discovered he’d already quit. His dad let him quit, even emailed his tutor saying he’s pulling out, instead of saying he needs to continue and taking him he agreed with him. It’s been a couple of months, my son just sells clothes on vinted now and his dad didn’t stop him quitting school just siding him, I’ve lost child benefit for him and can’t afford Christmas presents for all of my kids this year. It’s causing financial strain and I kicked his dad out of the house for being unsupportive of me , my 10 year old son has said he’s seen the dads son drive through my road but I don’t think he understands people can have the same car.
