So in answer to your last question, I expect my so to be able to make his own decisions and not rely on my point of view. Apparently you can't help but butt in in your kid's life, is that it?
Here is how you insult others. In this case me, by putting words in my mouth or on my fingers typing these posts. I never asked you to butt in, Please re-read my post. However, I did ask you on how you expect your son to react to a similar situation. Your answer for him to be able to make his own decisions do not answer the question on how you expected him to react, behave.
Both my kids are grown and one is married. At this point I have done as good as a job as i could have and I hope I have given them a foundation set of values to direct them for the rest of their lives. If my son was in similar situation, I wouldn't dare to butt in, advise, if he asked for it, as he does on various matters. I would expect him to stand up for himself and write off someone in his life, similar in behavior, to Juliette.
Juliette made it specifically clear, she was done with Nick. Why are you expecting for him to take her side and not the side of his unborn child? if your son was in a similar situation, I am not asking for you to force or influence his decision in any way. My question still stands. What would you EXPECT him to do. Take the side of a woman that walked out of his life, laughed at his face and stopped communicating with him, at this point, for about a month, or more. Whom would you expect your son to favor, Adalind or Juliette.
Maybe in the real world we don't have girlfriends turning into Hexenbiests. I am sure there are relationships that have broken up yet continue to be in each other's lives.
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
