 Well, if this is the only time this has happened, there could be a genuine reason for her ringing you. Sometimes with Mobile phones there isn`t enough signal to recieve calls and texts. Also, when someone is really worried sick about something, they are not always capable of thinking logically, and she may have automatically, instincively turned to the Father of her child. Hopefully, this will just be a "one off", and as such I would just Let it go. However, if it continues to happen, then you will be quite within your rights to take measures to prevent her from hassling you and your partner, even something as simple as changing your phone Number. Try not to let this incident spoil your relationship with your partner. Best Wishes, Heather.

reader, anonymous, writes (2 November 2006): I can see her concerns as a Mother. My own teen son did this to me recently and I was up until 3am frantically phoning all his friend's homes. He forgot to tell me he was staying at a buddie's house..before he went out. I, too was beside myself with worry.
As for her son not coming home..in her mind..this was life and death to her! So to avoid this happening again..make sure next time your partner's son comes to stay at your house, he calls his Mother to let her know his whereabouts. That would be the most respectful thing you could do. I know he's 18 but it's obvious she cares and takes responsibility for him. And quit being pissed off about whether she calls your ex, and discusses things about the son they created together. Accept that this is part of life when you get with a man who has kids from a previous relationship. It shouldn't matter if she tried the kid's phone or not..her main worry was finding out if he was okay. Don't read any more into what she does or it will drive you bonky. Let it go.
