[QUOTE="Malika, post: 560707, member: 11227"] Yes, J is for the moment "collecting" the photos on his face with various little scars and bumps... and he is regularly to be found in the most surprising places, like the roof of my neighbour's house. It may sound silly but I have hopes for chess. J has learnt the rudiments of the game and mostly I talk him through moves - how to see when he is being threatened by one of my pieces, what he can do to get out of situations, how to create check and checkmate. I think it may actually help him with the impulsiveness. Last night he said himself (when in the bath) - "Chess helps me think before I do things".... Worth a shot. :) Also my level is fairly rubbish so it's nice to be in the winning position for once :) [/QUOTE]
