[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 553588, member: 6705"] Jett and I were discussing this yesterday. He kept complaining he "couldn't" do something (I can't remember what). And I pointed out to him that there were LOTS of things I couldn't do - like play football cause I can't remember the signals - and he jumped in with how good he was at [I]that[/I] - and I let it sink in for a moment - and he started listing all the things he CAN do. (Grilling a danged good burger is one... My Dad taught him, and now that kid makes the PERFECT medium rare burger, better than husband even.) Everyone has different talents... Both my kids are smart as whips, but Onyxx does much better academically... It's more her thing than Jett's. Sort-of like me and husband - he is great with computer hardware, I'm good with software... Put the two together and we can actually build a computer and make it work! [/QUOTE]
