Just curious, how is S18 more like you?





Oh, he's the nerdy intellectual type who likes to read and do puzzle-type challenges - we just think a lot alike. And he has a more steady temperament like mine - usually pretty cheerful and "go with the flow".

The others are more like my H - more volatile, more physical, more restless, more emotional, more difficult. Not bad - just different.

GBO - yes, he's applied to Berkeley - and if he gets accepted, we will have to come check out the campus in April before making final decisions - are you up for houseguests?

How is he doing on the anger with dad front?






Oh, they're good now - but there was definitely a while where there was a lot of alpha-male head-butting that really had to do with my son's unresolved anger towards his dad.
