Hi Tony
Yes, you must give them all the clues, so that they get all of life's hues. Nicely done, and a crisp message on the job and its sob. Loved it immensely.

Strange you should write about parenting today. I have a 22 year old and I’m currently struggling with not crossing boundaries. What I really want to do is step in, implement change, and alter her course, so to speak. But I have to respect she’s an adult now and as such I have to learn how to step back a bit a let her make her mistakes and learn from them. My biggest hope is that she understands I’m there for her if she needs me. Setting pride aside and asking for a helping hand is not easy at that age.
