ZeesKite-Amen!

aries2756-so good to hear your ‘voice’!

I talked to my husband about this, but he’s afraid my son would find out we were behind the mechila, and then we’d also need mechila from my son! My son would be very upset that we approached this kid and ‘discussed’ him, and we couldn’t trust that this kid wouldn’t tell him. But we are looking into the possibility of other shlichim speaking to the boy.

Any advice on how to deal with the visits when he comes home for Shabbos? I don’t want to complain to my son that we don’t get to see him after him being away all week…..but we don’t get to see him on Shabbos, after him being away all week! I don’t want to give him pressure, but it is possible he saw my eyes tear up when I took him to the bus station…
