He's only 25. It haunts me. It's something I just have to live with however. Guilt is my companion. I feel responsible for him, having brought him up as a single mum for such a long time. It's hard not knowing how he is day to day, whether he's happy, whether things are going well for him or not., how he's coping financially etc.

So yeah If I knew then how things would turn out I feel it would be kinder not to have had him. For his sake.

It's an awful world to face on your own.

I get if you don't want to answer this question as it's personal, but have you thought about moving closer to where your Son lives? So that you could be in touch with each other more regularly?
