[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 538911, member: 14557"] I have to disagree. I don't see it as much a difficult child attitude than immature attitude. And I do expect my child to be immature because he is indeed still a child. It is not easy to learn your limitations. Especially when everything has always come to you easily. My easy child is in fortunate, or maybe unfortunate, position, where he has had very little experience of the situations, where he is not one of the best, where he simply is not able to achieve same as someone else. It is hard to learn those lessons. I do expect him to learn and be graceful about it later. But I also expect that learning can be hard for him. And yes, life is not fair. But also that is a hard lesson to learn. I still struggle with it and I know many older, very wise people whom I respect immensely who still struggle with it. I don't expect my teen boys take it gracefully. EDIT: I have to disagree also about sharing. I'm a happy tax-payer who pays over 30 % of my income to taxes and buy heavily taxed products with the rest. And I'm happy about it, because I like the outcome of that sharing. And yeah, I do loan also my car to friends, if they need it. :winking: [/QUOTE]
