He does need to get his grief out of the way. He may have used the weekends out as an excuse at first but now it seems he's found out what he's been missing, staying at home with a family. Let him have his time to grieve, then let him realize that the weekend outtings have to come to an end now. If he needs to come to terms about his fathers death and he can't talk to you then he must go and seek some grieving counselling via his GP. You don't want this escalating into a drinkin habit especially with another child on the way. Let him know that it is not acceptable any more to you. You can't help him grieving if he's not there with you can he?
