    Kite surfing is great,get him a powerkite,see how high he can jump,make sure he has a harness as well



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    There once was a girl that believed in mankind, that there was still honor and chivalry that existed in everyone of us. She also believed that everyone deserves a chance to prove oneself individually and hoped that the courtesy would be returned. That girl is dead now, and all that is left is her shadow. To give one a chance to prove thyself is a chance for you to become dwindled in the dissappointment.

    have you tried giving her reasons to stay home rather than go out? i always make sure i pay attention to what he is playing on his consoles and sometimes i play with him. or we go out to rent movies a lot and we just sit in the the settee and watch a movie with a bowl of popcorn. we cuddled up and had a good cry watching marley and me.

    Despite the bad start he turned out to be a well balanced, gentle person. When he was younger I made it a point that he knows that he can tell me everything. Apart from being his mum I was as he says now, his best friend. I never yelled or smacked him as a child. We have arguments now but it starts and ends with a conversation not a screaming match.

    What I am a little afraid of is, our closeness.

    He hardly hangs out with his mates, he is always at home! I so want him to have a life outside our home. Like tonight for instance he was invited by friends to go to an Indie night in our town hall. I told him to go but he said no, that it was dangerous out there with people being stabbed and arguments breaking out in town so late at night. My point is it is not late they go home at about 11. THe only time they are out is on Fridays when they go to the cinema, and he can't wait to go back home!

    What is wrong with my son??
    In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with your son, on the contrary, he is perfectly alright......
    And that says a lot about you and how you raised him well....his being a good boy is just a reflection of how good you are as a mom.....
    And it was good that he is careful and always think before he does.....i think you did a good job

    I suppose you are worried you probably sheltered him too much, but it's for the best, i'm sure he will be fine....
