So great for the way you handled this situation, it is never easy when they decide they are big enough to be on their own.

How difficult it must have been to let Scotty go out on his own but knowing you built that solid foundation in his life, he came back and look what he realized about the decisions you made as a parent! He sounds like he's an incredible person...he's going to make a great dad some day!! I'm glad you 2 are communicating and building back that strong bond you have! Big hugs!
