Michelle and ACJ - I've had that happen to me, too (the website devouring my posts). Not sure what happens on your computers, but mine seems to just 'stick'. Doesn't freeze up, just takes FOREVER to go through, IF at all. So what I usually do when that happens is hit the 'STOP' button on my toolbar, copy what I have written, and then come back when the site's actually functioning properly and paste it when trying to post again. Make sense? Anyhow, works for me. Still frustrating but at least I don't have to retype anything!

Probably!
Right, I understand about the maturity thing. It probably doesn't help either that his momma does almost everything for him. We've been working on that though.

Not defensively. I know, a little hard to believe right now. He actually sounded a little disappointed, and I did give some WOA (looks like I left that out in my previous post ). Not immediately after he said it (doh!), but later when we had just sat down to watch some TV. I told him, "Thanks for offering the ride. That was really cool, and I really appreciate the thought. I just wasn't comfortable with leaving the boys here by themselves at this hour."
I like your suggestion better though!

I'll gratefully accept whatever helps!
