[quote=Anonymous]My question is--did you ever feel close to your son? The way you're talking "we don't have the same taste in books or activities" makes me wonder if your expectations are way too high. Is he an only child? I've never had the same book interests as my 12 year old son (besides Harry Potter), but I still take him to the library and ask him what he's reading and listen to the plot of whatever he is willing to tell me about. My son loves playing Minecraft and watching YouTube videos of others playing Minecraft. I don't have to sit and play or watch with him. He does this on his own and if he wants to tell me about it, I'll listen and ask questions, but I won't spend time playing. Find the things that connect you, but don't force them.![/quote]
