[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 660257, member: 14557"] Ache in fact nowadays often does take responsibility for his actions and where those have gotten him, but a) it is recent development, maybe last three, four at tops, years and it is still not always consistent. I would say that turning point was somewhere around the time he started to see his sport psychologist, which was three years ago, couple months before he turned 19. b) it is not always healthy or accurate either. Sometimes he instead of seeing it was his mistakes or actions that caused unfortunate to happen sees it so, that it is his inner core that is wrong and causes things to happen. That because he is worthless, bad things happen instead of that because he didn't pay attention or was not organised he forgot to pay a bill and now faces bigger collecting fees than the actual bill was. c) he is still not that good at planning ahead. His impulse control is still poor. It is better it was five years ago, but that doesn't make it good or even adequate. It is a process, but there is hope. Our boys are still young even though legal adults. Their brain development is still in the progress and they actually will learn many things still. Some iof those things may even be useful. [/QUOTE]
