What it sounds like he is being a buddy to his 12 yr old son and imitating what 12 yr olds do. Then again I work too much and don’t have much fun.
I didn't mean to make it sound like he does nothing but play video games. I'm beginning to doubt that he is a Type 4 because he is so much a Jack-of-all-trades type. He's the kind of guy who used to work one full time job and one part time job all the time. He's definitely not inclined to be a "buddy" to his 12 year old. He is a very involved but VERY strict parent. He calls the discussions he has with his son "man law" as in "That rock-head boy of mine talked back to his teacher so we had man-law." Then I think he made him build a stone wall in the backyard and dismantle it or something like that.
