We do talk about these things. I think that is why it breaks my heart when he shuts me out...He moved here with us a year ago and has not seen his bm sinse that time. I can't get him to tell me if this is what is upseting him... sometimes I feel like this little guy just thinks it is his job to make everything okay for the adults around him. I did finally get my husband to understand that everytime he has a dissapointment in his life we can't run out and buy him something. This has created my ss12 to have an emptiness that can't be filled and he always wanting more possessions.
I am also wondering if this could be puberty...he has been growing and eating like crazy and I have noticed his chest area is becoming more like a man than the boy I am used to... The other day he came to me to show me the hair that is growing his legs...LOL He is the only boy so I am not sure what is "Normal" The girls are a lot easier to figure out... they get really snotty and then tell you they need pads... then you know the nightmare has begun...LOL
But I do not know what is normal for a boy. I blame his BM for a lot but I dont know if that is really the case or if it just bothers me that he will never be my "real" son....
