[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 377878, member: 3419"] [I]Thanks for all of the advice. I'm thinking of showing this to my wife. She would probably just freak out that I told so many details.[/I] That's part of the denial, in my humble opinion. She's got to admit there's a big, fat problem and that you won't get useful ideas or help by covering everything up. IOW, if you keep doing the same thing, you're going to get the same results. In addition, that is why we use screen names or names that are so common, no one would figure them out. I'm not terribly worried about what people think of me, but I do want to protect my son's privacy. Every now and then he does make a new friend and I don't want to ruin his already minimal social life. I also don't want teachers to recognize us ... or more importantly, them, since I've referred to a few of them in not-so-nice terms. ;) Best of luck with-your wife. Stay with-us. [/QUOTE]
