    New here, problems with my son

    He is my only child as well. I think my son is both - Unaware and does not care. It has been all about him ONLY for the past 3 years I'm sorry for what you are going through........................Detaching sounds like a healthy choice for both of us.

    New here, problems with my son

    at this point I probably wont see him for another year......................I will plan to make future visits short and also think it would be best to make an attempt to include others . I am sure he would not lash out if others were present . After reading many posts here I am grateful that...

    I dont think I have to worry much about getting out of town - he would most likely stay with friends and or Air B and B next visit. And on the off chance he wants to stay here his father can deal with him - I have an older relative who is alone ,with- an extra room - she always welcomes my...

    you are correct he does not acknowledge my birthday - most Ive ever received was an email or call. Never a gift or card. Kind of strange . I have decided against any kind of letter . May do a happy birthday text- from all that has just transpired a snail mail card feels like too much effort...

    Let him figure out what he's done and how to fix it.--This is exactly what I plan to do. BLAND is the word! Wondering if he will make a move to try to fix it OR just not care . I guess only time will tell. Thanks very much for your feedback.

    No mental illness diagnosis. As a matter of fact he is 100% different towards his friends and other adults. We had a short train ride to visit older (in their late 80s) relatives. Our son was upbeat, kind, caring hugged and kissed them hello and goodbye. On train home had his nose in his...

    Have not been sitting home waiting for him since college. Our communictaion was limited but always pleasant until recently. The last 2 winter break visits were bad but nothing compared to this . I concluded incorrectly that now that he has started working full time that when he came to see...

    He has acknowledged my birthday and mothers day only with an email . Never once a gift which I always felt was strange but never challenged. He has gone out of his way to purchase gifts fro friends, a girlfriend, and on occasion for his father. He also sends cards, but has never to me. I...
