Hi Mellors,

I think you are a great father for trying to teach these things to your son. It's a shame that your ex opposes your ideas. I wish I had better advice to give you, but we can't control other people's thoughts and reactions. Maybe if you could talk to her more and point out all of the positives of your son learning these new things? I don't know, I'm sure you have tried that already. It stinks that she is acting this way just to prevent you from being closer to your son. She sounds very insecure, like maybe she's afraid he will become closer with you than he is with her? That's selfish on her part, since learning these things and developing a closer bond with you is very beneficial to your son.

Well, just know that you have my support.

Take care,
Sujin
