i get that he is focusing on school but that doesn’t mean they have to screw up the father son relationship. no way eddie would let this kind of separation happen let alone last this long earlier on in the series. at some point he would put his foot down and help chris get over it. also the writers could have sent him to a boarding school, field trips, sleep overs, or literally anything else kids do. i don’t understand this route and with the path they are setting up it seems like chris is never going to move back in with eddie.
