I agree with what Zinnia said. Please congratulate your son for being a great worker. The company approved his transfer because they didn't want to lose him. His supervisor scolded him because he doesn't want to lose your son either. His supervisor will accept it soon, and he'll get over it. He may give your son a hard time until he leaves, but knowing it's because he doesn't want to lose your son might help him get through this. He can talk to his supervisor and tell him he is sorry for asking for a transfer, but he had to do it because....(fill in the blanks). Sometimes just talking to a person who is angry with us helps smooth things over. I will pray for your son. Tell him there are many praying for him and to stay strong.
