you ought to be getting all the info and answers from your husband that you are asking on this board.

you could contact the mother and if your husband is open to contact can leave it with her. she can talk to son, and son can decide.

she was 17, i doubt your husband was much older. if not, then there is that. if he was quite a bit older, that is different.

so much of this depends on your husbands willingness to open up to him fuckin up, how he feels and what he wants to do.
