we all have to move forward. You have to move forward. Ethan won’t be a child forever. You won’t always be with me. That’s part of life. You always have to leave something behind. And in this case…” Peter said, placing both hands on Alden’s shoulders, “it’s your time to move forward. It’s time for you to start your real life–one where I won’t be watching your every
