[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 666946, member: 18958"] Your son has made a series of excellent choices. One after another. Nobody consistently, forever, makes excellent choices. He is bound to err. From this he will learn. You know this. I think we as parents are so fragile, frightened and beat up by the time they do turn things around, we wait with baited breath for things to break down. Again. We know but lose sight of the reality that...it is inevitable that the winning streak will break. And that it is not the series of wins that counts, it is the batting average. Your son has been batting a thousand. Something essential in him seems to have changed. Even if he errs in judgment every now and then...he needs to in order to learn, to reach the next level. He is doing it. And so are you. [/QUOTE]
