Hi. Just looking for anyone who is in a similar situation and has "been there".... I have two teenage sons 14 and 15. Presently the younger one spends his time 50/50 with myself and my ex and his fiancé and her 18yr old son. My older son is being treated for severe anxiety (has left school) and is living with them full time as this he has found this less stressful. We separated/divorced 2 yrs ago. The boys have always had a very strong relationship with me and although I feel this hasn't fundamentally changed they seem to want to spend more time at their fathers. Is this a normal thing teenage boys do? As heartbreaking as it is I am trying to do what is ultimately right for them. I just feel like they are 'slipping away' as they don't seem to 'need' to communicate with me much anymore (they can seem to happily go a week with no contact). Thanks for any thoughts
