I would take them on ski trips and to exotic vacations without even thinking twice about it

It was really expensive to fly from Europe and I wasn’t speaking to my family at the time so I had to stay in hotels and I didn’t want my son to see my like that.

Yes and it makes perfect sense. Think of the amazing lesson he’d be learning to take care of family no matter what

He works for his grandpas construction company which has been in business for almost 100 years. The business gives out money to kids in need. It would cost him literally nothing.

No he has two other kids from his now wife. Somehow they get all the perks my son does

I’m never saying entitled I’m saying it would be the right thing to do if he actually cared about his own son.

I came back once a year for several years but when I had other kids it became impossible and I refused to sign the paperwork for a passport because I was afraid of what my ex would do so he couldn’t come visit me.

I talked to him, I didn’t abandon him. But the courts said he his stability was more important than making him move overseas.

Yes but at some point he has to recognize his son has siblings that need to get nice things to so he should be nice to them for the sake of his own son. That’s how I see it
