Sue Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I'm a bit concerned by "before I .... Go away ...."Are you having counselling, and if not, might it help? You can self-refer, you don't need to go through your GP.https://talkingtherapiessouthwark.nhs.uk/ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/307259-whats-the-best-gift/#findComment-1575528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waseley Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I'm a little lost. Why are you planning to give your estranged kid a sports car? Sounds more Hollywood than SE22 to me. More appropriate/sensible things, a lap top or tablet for example? Sorry if I have misunderstood.

intexasatthe moment Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I think barging in/surprising people is rarely a good tactic .Could you write them a letter ?Maybe talk through the contents with someone you trust first ?As others have said ,don't give up hope .14 is still very young ,and an emotional age .There are years ahead to rebuild and have a relationship .
