We were together for 3 1/2 years and I broke up with him a couple months ago. We still remain good friends mainly because we have a son together. He comes over every weekend to visit him. His family is six hours away and he said he doesn't have the money to drive there. He has stated that he has become depressed since we broke up and I don't want to add to it by leaving him by himself for Thanksgiving. It will be our son's first TG but he is only 4 months old and it's not like he will be joining us at the table to eat. I also moved back home with my parents and they really could care less if he came-they don't like him much. I will feel so guilty if I don't . But I can't keep inviting him forever. When do I cut it off? After Christmas? Then he is on his own? HELP!!!!

You know this man and your situation better than anyone. You don't have to make it an annual invitation. Just for the baby's first. But be careful that he doesn't read more into this. If your parents are good people, they'll understand.

Yes, invite him. It doesn't matter if your parents like him or not. He is the father of your son and he has a right to be able to spend the holidays with him also. Your parents need to stay out of it.

You said you moved in with your mom and dad, they have the say who comes to their home.
If your parents don`t care,invite him.
There is a few that answered your question that said don`t listen to your parents,what kind of young people are we raising nowadays? Your parents know what is good for you.
Like i said if they don`t care,''invite''.

I think it is awesome that you two can stay friends, but I think you need to have you're own space. And it worries me his telling you he is depressed, why is he trying to make you feel guilty?. I would also think about the rest of you're family you don't want to make them feel uncomfortable.

there's nothing wrong at all....just be glad that you guys have a good relationship because the situation could be worse where he hated you and didn't want anything to do with your son...so invite him forget wat your parents say...
