Your relationship with your kid probably continues to change and develop as he moves toward adulthood. I imagine there have been people at various points in your life who have questioned the legitimacy of your family structure.
You are your kid's dad, and you always will be. What's going on with him? Probably nothing. Maybe it's funny to him that when his father calls, his full government name pops up on the screen.
Our phones are places where we deposit the weird insides of our brains, and it doesn't always make sense to the outside eye. I'm curious what he calls you when speaking to you.
Try to put aside the hurt; chalk it up to teen capriciousness. Mention it to him casually if you're nervous that it means something bigger. If he gives that textbook teen response Nothing, let it be just that.
