[quote=Anonymous]Yes, your expectations are unreasonable, because they're all about you. It's expensive and not cost effective to fly, especially if you're young and have work obligations and don't have money growing on trees. It's admirable that he's joining your SIL family for holidays. As others say, if you want to see him, you'll have to travel as you seem to have time and money. As and adult child, I personally never liked visiting my childhood home as moms especially often remain back in time when the adults were "children" with all the subsequent expectations. Your son, like other adult kids, have moved on from that. And I know you're stuck in time because you expect him to come to you, and you don't treat him as an equal adult that he now is. [/quote]
