Let's not use strong words here like "fault" and "should" if you don't know the whole story, please. Oh, I HAVE talked to him...many times! And he has talked to his kids many times. They were rather young and didn't live with him after the divorce; he did see them a lot, but there were other influences in their lives that were not, shall we say, interested in having those children have a good relationship with my side of the family. I think there was an unnecessary pulling of those kids away...I believe my son did as much as he could given his situation.
