OK i am really upset about this and don't really know if i should be'
my son is in the marines and is living in Okinawa.he is coming home for a month before he goes for more training.
the mother has been wanting to see me but i have resisted this .i does not want to see her and have been avoiding this.she lives in another state and i wouldn't go see her.
so i went on my sons facebook and read this message she sent to my son
I miss you so much and i won't be able to come up for Christmas because i just don't have the money.I've never felt so empty in my life except for when gram pa died i miss you and your mother so much.

no i have never let my son know how the mother treated me .i allowed him to have a relationship with her as long as i was able to protect him and i did well with it.

now that he is out on his own she seem to be using him in this way to get to me and it is upsetting me horribly.he called me telling me that he would buy her a ticket to come home during Christmas.i felt trapped between doing what my son wanted and what i wanted.the mother knew exactly what she was doing .he is only 20 and doesn't need to be worrying about her and all.i am so angry.

i called her and told her i would buy her a ticket to come for Christmas so my son didn't feel bad anymore.she was like all thankful and saying how sorry she was that she didn't mean to make my son feel bad.what can i say to that.i just said i know but i was fuming inside.

am i overreacting about this god i hate her so much.i should have never let her ever know my son.

Your son is old enough to know the truth. Esp since the mother is emotionally blackmailing him too.
Thanks for this!
