[quote=Anonymous]OP I think you need to see this for what it is. It's a lesson for you that your son's inappropriate behavior can have lasting consequences. Not everyone is going to instantly forgive and forget. And it's an opportunity for you to teach your son how to repair a relationship after he has been inappropriate. This is a skill that he NEEDS to learn. And here's a golden opportunity to try to teach it. Model the appropriate behavior by respecting her boundaries and explaining to your son that he must do the same. There is literally no way you can convince her to change her mind-- more pressure will only backfire. I've been a young woman in this situation and the young man's father pressured me and I will have my boundaries up forever, because it's not an experience I care to repeat.[/quote]
