am I right in thinking you only see your son once every 2 weeks at moment
Sort of. I see him whenevere I'm there seeing them both or taking my daughter out/picking her up. But he blanks me. He is 12 so can't make him do anything he doesn't want to do. And I don't want to put pressure on him to. As that will not help at all.
I'd still say to keep trying. He is also at an age where he's going to be spending more time with his friends, which will be more interesting to him than either of his parents. But as I said, it's a long game you are playing, possibly a few years, but keep showing him you haven't given up and hopefully in the future, he'll begin to appreciate that.
