Charlie,
As a divorced male and three childred, I hope that I can answer this for you. The experiences i have had with my two oldest boys, 10 and 12, are really terrific. A boy is never too young, nor too old, to have the kind of relationship you describe. I also had and absentee father and it hurt very much. We never became close until after i was 18. We lived under the same roof, but he was never there for me. In spite of the distance apart that I live from my boys, they know how much I love them. I try to see them as often as I can, and reinforce my love and caring each time i see them. Feel free to e-mail me with any other questions regarding this.
