I have been presented with a huge life altering decision to make... As most of you know, I have had alot of problems with my sons Dad. My son has been with me since the beginning, and has had a somehat of a relationship with his dad. Not the easiest, not the best. he is just about a few months out of rehab, seems to be doing good.
He has asked Myles, my son to move in with him, and attend Eastside Catholic school. It is a great school, and a great opportunity for Myles, but it is about 2 hours from our home, and I can not imagine not having Myles here with us.
Myles really loves the school, but does not want to make the decision of leaving, he wants to stay, but wants to go.. I would have him on weekends.
I know that maybe, now they can start to have that relationship they have never had. I know it does not have to be permanent, but I am torn... I love him so much, and it will change the whole dynamics of our home.. He brings so much joy and laughter, and I will miss him, I am home everyday when he gets home, or I pick him up. I am at every sporting practice, and game.. I am his motivator on his schoolwork... WE are a team, and how do I let that go????
He just turned 15, I will be missing out on alot things he will be doing..Maybe, this is the ultimate sacrifice as a mother? I just do not know... I am so depressed about it, I just look at him and cry..... :(
Confused?????????????????????????

Wow! This is a true difficult decision...
Perhaps it may be time for his father to take a true role in his life and be a positive role model as your son enters into the very early stages of becoming a young man...

Is he, or his father a couple months out of rehab? That is what would concern me. Are there any other children in his home, I'm guessing not. If not having a son all of a sudden living with him may not be a great dynamic....just a thought...sorry no help.

Just decide what is best for Myles in the big picture, not for your ex or you, but for Myles! And stand on that.........and draw strength from it.
