If you're going to quote people's comments at least read the things properly.”
OMG ?
she had no positive effect on his upbringing as she wasn't there was she
you have to listen to her side too, she couldn't get close to him, she was blocked
and you have to wonder why.
His loyalty was always going to be with his Dad, he was being brought up and living with him.
I read the article and what the son says, he doesn't elaborate, but Dad disliking mum certainly wouldn't have helped either of them have any chance of a relationship.
Rather than believe one side, which offers little information anyway, listen to what Angie's said too, and sounds like she never got a chance to have a relationship with her son and it certainly wasn't encouraged, and the child grew up with whatever he was told and it's stuck, he doesn't want her in his life. Whether down to brain washing or just estrangement and too much time passed, who knows. you and I don't.
