re: #88 Bagua
Oops I forgot my sarc tag. He really did make a macabre pumpkin but I read that as a healthy expression of the spirit of the evening. He is in fact a very gentle boy who loves hugs and has a fantastic sense of humor and imagination.
We don’t let boys express their wild and frenetic sides enough (expecially in school) and I think that leads to issues in another way. As far as I’m concerned fidgeting and off color humor are natural for pre-teen boys.
