Little LiverBird literally physically clung to me for like, the first 7 or so years of his life. He'd just about let go when his stepdad died suddenly and he then clung to me again until secondary school. It took a house move to convince him nobody would die if he slept in his own bed
It was/is massively difficult for us both, despite having loving, supportive parents/grandparents but we have always been so very close. I can't imagine having a better friend than him. But, at the same time, I'm also his mum and he knows that I will make decisions he won't always like but I will always make them with his best interests at heart.
Sorry, I'm rambling. My point is, it makes me feel so sad to see that Sopha has completely blown her bond with Ronnie Hatton in such a short time. She's never going to get this time back.
But Sophie (I know she hasn't read here since 1742), if you or your people see this, I beg you, please, step away from Instagram and the phone. Spend some real time with that beautiful little boy before you do any further damage to your relationship with him.
