[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask him what would make him feel better. Acknowledge that he's sad, but don't act super sad yourself, keep telling him that he's going to be okay.[/quote] He already said what would make him feel better. An intact family. [/quote] And he should've told that is not a possibility. Maybe ask him if he would like you and you ex to take him out to do something fun together. Steer the direction of the conversation toward actual possibilities. I am so glad my mom left my alcoholic father. Best thing that could've happened to us. He even went to rehab and was in recovery for years after that but it didn't last. Do not doubt your choices OP. Growing up living with an addict is not how a child should grow up. [/quote]
