Y’know how sometimes you just need to be told something in a certain way for it to make sense? Basically everyone who’s replied here, and the unanimous consensus is to let him play, has done that in some way for me, but this one in particular is very helpful. Thank you, mmm.
Hey, why don’t we continue this somewhere else?
Offer a alternative, and then another, strongly suggest, then forever hold your piece. You have more say then those at a wedding and perhaps veto power, but that can be overridden. Do what you can, say what you must, but when the smoke clears accept what is and be there to pick up the pieces, as that is what a parent does.
Wouldn’t it be great if we could close our own threads?
