Hi Mine, Malley didn't mean goodbye forever, just for tonight because he is going to bed. He values your friendship and doesn't mean to offend you ever. He is upset now and doesn't want to go to school tomorrow. If you guys are going to be friends then it needs to be a positive friendship where both of you feel good about being friends. A friend is someone who makes you a better version of yourself, someone who helps you to shine.  Enjoy your evening and see you at school tomorrow. Mrs Taylor.
As Malley's mum, you need to understand that he does like you. You don't have to doubt that or question it. He really enjoys chatting with you online. He likes things simple: getting along with everyone and being allowed to be himself. He just wants to be happy and get around to things in his own time.
