I wonder if him being adopted has anything to do with it. He really doesnt eat that much junk however he doesn't get any exercise either outside of Thursday night swimming lessons so it could just be his genetics. The good thing is that the doc worships the ground I walk on and in her eyes I can do no wrong. She gives and gives to me.
He is 8 and unfortunately doesn't have much socialization with other kids outside of what he gets at school. He was in cub scouts for a while but that ended when their troop folded and the meetings got moved to a different night. I was never a cub scout kid, imo dorks do cub scouts, but if he enjoyed it then more power to him.
Anyway, the doc is a little harsh and critical. We were out a couple of weeks ago and she introduced me to a friend of hers and she told them what a perfect role model I was. Maybe I can help soften her up some but I also dont want to tell her how to parent either. His control issues are evident I just dont think she understands her role.
He wont even let someone take his picture. Rarely ever.
