Jack, I really don't think I can talk him out of his MLC. I know it is what I refer to as a "growth spurt" and necessary for his big leap into manhood. I am actually excited to see the man he is about to become..and hope that I get to. I know he needs to figure this out for himself, just like I had to get thru the couple of massive growth spurts that I have been thru. I am going thru one now. My friends and family are there for me, and granted, I'm much more clear headed about it since
