I feel for you in the position you are in. I don't have any answers but your love and support over the phone seem to help sustain his confidence. What a good caring mom you are being. You are not rushing to judgement or rushing in to take over and do it for him. His knowing that you believe he can cope and find a way may be his greatest gift. Yet, he knows you would fly in for a rescue, allows him to know if he absolutely can't do it, he has back up.
