[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry, OP. I'm going through something similar, only it's my own brother who's disowning his teenaged boy. :( It's so hard. I can't control my brother, but I can make sure my nephew understands that I love him unconditionally, and will always be there for him. That my house is open to him at any time, and he can live with us the day he turns 18 if he wants. You are offering that, too, and it means a lot more than you might think. It doesn't erase the pain of his mother acting like a complete jerk. Unfortunately it's part of being an adult -- making life choices that not everyone is going to agree with. If she's emotionally stable at all, she will likely come around eventually. If she's not, well, then, I'm sure this isn't the first challenge he's faced with her. I second contacting a counselor at the academy. But support from loving adults in his life is critical too. I wish you the best.[/quote]
