im going to sleep on this another night. hunting buddy and g/friend want me to write short sweet letter back without nailing him to the cross....
and basically tell him no matter what he has done i will always love him....

His letter may be an attempt to get his dad back (and maybe the rest of his life). He fuched up royally, but he isn't dead, and he's young so he still has a "life" in front of him if he so chooses. Good luck...tough love is just that...LOVE! IMO, you have nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed about. I'm not a parent, but you're certainly not the first to see one go astray in spite of "everything"....
