My wife has put up a wall of defense and I fear now that it is transferring over causing my son to be alienated from me. My son used to be excited when I came home, jumping in my arms. Now he is distant, and when I asked to come give me a hug, he looks down at the floor. I talked to him on the phone and had to listen to him cry come home and ask me if I would be home in a while. When I talk to my wife about when I will be able to see him, she responds with "I let you know." So far this week I have only been able to spend 2.5 hours with my son, with another 2.5 hours scheduled.

My wife won't even talk to me on the phone. She gets agitated when I text her. How can I get it through to my wife that I want to spend more time? Should I give a couple of more days? Will my son just stop asking for me?
