My own son would rather live on welfare than live with me...

Of course a lot of people can't stand living in the country. I love to live outside of a big giant town in the country. Where it is a beautiful open field or such but i can still go to town when i wish.

That's how it is here. It's only a 15 minute drive from my land to town. A beautiful 15 minutes filled with trees, cows, horses, goats, emus, and even the occassional trio of deer running across the road. Once you get to town they have walmart, sonic, a movie theater, and all the other shit you would find in any city.

unless his mother completely turned against him then you probably have yourself to blame. my dad always treated my sister worse than everyone else in my family, though not as bad as she makes it sound, and was still shocked when she said she didnt want to live with him. and here is a tip, though i am not a parent, i would care more about him being a good father than having a good job and a home in the country. in fact my dad had a good job and a nice house when she moved out. hmmmm i guess there are things more important than material

hopefully things get bettter and he forgives you for whatever you did or didnt do, like i said unless his mother completely turned him against you i cant believe he just up and decided to hate you. then again i only read the first post

Who knows what he really thinks. His mother is a master manipulator. She's made her way through her entire life by getting people to believe her lies, and avoiding responsibility for anything she does. I know she talks bad about me to him, and I know he has to believe at least some of it.

then maybe it's about time you sat down and talked to him to get his take on everything, just caring what he thinks can mean more to him in the end, than most everything else you could do in this situation, it might open up doors to get to know each other, and him to know the real you, not the lies (my mom was that way about my dad, i didn't grow up wtih either in my life really, but my mom lived near me enough i saw her once in a while) just some advice.

Pick one.

Spent most of my life in the Bay Area. I lived in San Lorenzo, San Leandro, Oakland, Hayward, Union City, Fremont, Castro Valley. Most recently Modesto. My son is in LaGrange, wherever the fuck that is. I've never been there. But he's with his mother, and his mother is all ghetto.

i live in that area. a bit far away from modesto, but im in the east bay.
