<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WaA140, post: 50222, member: 2663&quot;]Mostly my previous post was based on my own experience with my son who just turned 16 a few months ago.&nbsp; When we get together with my wife&#039;s family for big holidays the adults often play games like Sequence or a few other board and card games.&nbsp; At 14, my son would hang around and mope, sometimes begging to play with us.&nbsp; We finally relented and he thought he was an adult but he would often ruin the game by blurting out what cards he thought so-and-so had in their hand or boast about his own hand, all kinds of things that adults have long since learned not to do.&nbsp; It ruined a few games for us and there were a few times we had to invite him to leave the game but he learned that if he wanted to play with the adults he had to start acting like the adults.&nbsp; It was a learning experience for him and he does much better now.&nbsp; I think there is a similar situation going on here.&nbsp; Cut him some slack and let him learn how to act like an adult.&nbsp; It is a little more difficult here due to the anonymity of the internet but patience and effort on all our parts can make a big difference in a person&#039;s life.&nbsp; Anyway, here is one little lesson for a youngster.&nbsp; Image can make a difference in how people treat you.&nbsp; On the internet, how we write is our image.&nbsp; So, a little extra effort can make a difference in how <b>ur</b> treated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
