Hello! *PIC ADDED*

[Karen]

I hope you or your parents have looked into getting custody of him, the poor kid needs to know someone is in his life for keeps. Give him a big hug from me, okay?

[sumbirdy]

That is why I am looking into abandonment laws. I think it would be a whole lot easier to get him if they see that his parents don't want him. Charles and Stephanie have both moved on with their lives and have other children. (Charles has a daughter and another on the way and Stephanie has a daughter and maybe a son) Nathan has pretty much been forgotten. I reassure him every day that I love him and I'm not going anywhere.

Oh, the poor little boy! He deserves much better than what he has in the way of "parents."

[K9karen]

Whoa! Stephanie as more kids?
Gotta say I'm surprised at Charles but, oh well.
Poor, poor, poor Nathan. How heartbreaking. The poor boy is the only one suffering, apparently. Tsk. Tsk.

Looks like it's up to you to love him up and be there for him. I was much older than you, but I have to say, I practically raised my niece and she turned out awesome. Lots of love.

Hugs to Nathan.

sumbirdy, it's said that even if a child has no - or bad - parents, just ONE adult in his or her life makes all the difference.

You and your parents are there for him, and that will be his rock.

When he grows up, he can confront his so-called parents.

HUGS and I hope you can adopt him. I found a couple of links that might help:
