  • Absolutely!  Hit the nail firmly on the head.  I used to look to my wife, in desperation, trying to understand what was going on in my boys head; a sort of "You must understand this.  You do this.  See that.  That thing he's doing.  It's you.  Help me understand.  Why is he doing it.  What's going on in his head" ...and she'd look at me like I was bloody mad!

    On a serious note, dr3am3r, I think I probably alienated her a bit.  Where I thought I was acknowledging her superior understanding and trying to enlist her help, she was thinking I was blaming her and putting pressure on her.
