To expect my son to let me know how his GCSEs are going?

[Youshouldbestrongerthanme]

Son is with his dad this week.
I asked him before he went back to please let me know how his exams were going.
Nothing since Tuesday.
Husband says this is just "typcial teenage behaviour" but I kind of disagree?
Also, if son was with me, I'd be gently encouraging him to message Dad to let him know all was good. Ex-husband would never do this the other way around, however.

I dont like talking about how my exams have gone after I have done them. I just like to put them out of my mind!
Leave him be!

My DS is also doing GCSEs. He doesn’t say much anyway. You don’t really how you got on. My DD is doing A Levels;; she does chat more about was in the exams etc but she’s always been more willing to share info about school…

AIBU to expect the OP to let us know whether DS chatted about his GCSEs when he came over this weekend?!

@Youshouldbestrongerthanme I have the same with my DS - get next to no comms on the 50/50 at his Dad's, never have done really (he's ND so not a great communicator at the best of times) and a tricky comms relationship with the ex too so feel can'task him. I just send a message and a "you got this" type gif in the morning before each exam. When I see him next, the focus will just be getting through the next chunk of revision and exams. It's utter rubbish but not a lot that can be done about it and just need to suck it up. I bloody hate coparenting and its at times like these I do question my choices momentarily!

thats not his fault though is it?

yes it’s disappointing but really not something to address now

Yes, I was divorced from when ds was age 2 and similar pattern of contact by the time he reached GCSE age. I found that he didn't really want to discuss it and would send messages if he did. Most of that age, particularly boys, tend to view it that once the exam is done there's no point discussing it as they can't change anything anyway. If you've been divorced since he was 3 then your contact pattern is established and very kindly you just need to treat it as the usual 7 days and enjoy his company when he returns. My ex was the same, actively discouraged contact on 'his' time. Maybe your ds is just discussing this sort of thing with his dad at the moment and will get to you later?
My ds is now 24, our contact is mainly by WhatsApp, he can go weeks without 'talking' then I'll get a random message and we'll have a conversation.
You're finding these changes difficult, but time keeps moving and they change.
