Sigo muy preocupada con este tema, y ya han pasado meses...
No comprendo que pretende, ni cuales son sus verdaderas motivaciones, la verdad, cada dia entiendo menos todo esto, pero aunque no me llame y no sepa nada de él... siempre apoyaré a mi hijo incluso en una locura como esta.
Por cierto... cambie el diseño de mi perfil y subi alguna foto. Espero que te guste.
Muchas gracias por estar ahí.
Te dejo una img de mi hijo x si no sabes quien es.
