My 15 yo son told me he no longer has any feeling for his mother.

I'm a child of a BPD mother and the ex-husband of one. Recently, my 15 year old son (who lives with me) confided that he has no more feeling for his mother. Alarms began to sound that originated 40 years ago in my own psyche. I want to do all I can to help guide him through these horribly conflicting feelings. Any suggestions will be thankfully considered.

I'm the child of a mother with BPD as well. Is this triggering for you?

Did you ask him why? What kind of contact does he have with his mother?
