[quote=Anonymous]12 year old kid who doesn’t have a dad? I’m sorry, but he is angry. And he doesn’t want mothering. He wants fathering. And it is what it is. He can’t get fathering. He will survive, but he is going to be angry and that’s his right. I suggest therapy just so he’s aware of what’s going on with his emotions. It won’t change his behavior per se in the short term. In the meantime, are there any trustworthy dudes you know who can mentor him? Teach him something? Guitar? Skateboarding? Woodworking etc. Good luck! Distance is normal at this age even in nuclear families. [/quote]
