We are going through this very thing right now with Edison. It's very insightful for Hugh, at such a young age, to reason whether or not to participate in otherwise fun activities.
There's a depth there that is unmistakable. . .and it's a priceless gift. I tell myself that this wisdom that Hughie and Edison seem to carry with them will serve them well as they face bigger battles in the world.
Absolutely beautiful Helen!! Hughie is so thoughtful and tender hearted and it's nice to see a child think and use his brain. It means YOU as a parent are doing a terrific job raising him!! I believe a child imitates his parents and boy am I in TROUBLE!! LOL....
Hughie is a really wonderful young man. He knows what he wants or doesn't want to do and he doesn't let peer pressure affect his decision. That is very rare. I know that you are very proud of him.
Keep up the great parenting. He is still so young I am sure he will suprise you in many of his decision.

Ah, but as a Mom, I still worry at times.
Good for Hughie for having opinions and standing up for what he feels. That's rare in a child that age.
