The only thing you can do is to continue to try to communicate with him.

What's the reason for the estrangement?

"She`s A lazy so in so"


Well there you go for the likely reason. Until you change your approach or attitude toward your son's wife and your grandchildren's mother, very likely estrangement will continue.

So what are you doing to try to repair the relationship?

What efforts have you made?

Post him a nice letter...in your own handwriting...don't badger him, don't
ask questions just let him know that you are fine and that all is well.

Even just a nice card that says 'Love, Mom'...would be nice.

He'll call. We always do. God bless.
