YES, CONGRATS, Frankie on the job!..and
you to, MOm for staying out of his "work life". Believe me, it realy helps our sons mature faster when we let them handle that area of their life. It took awhile(8 yrs,) but my Scott has begun inviting me for certain personnel HR related meetings so we can banter options around at home & I found he respects my opinions. Surprise, surprise!
HUGS,

i think you should let him, if let his am get in the way of doing what he likes then that is just falling in the missarble trap of BP. I work 16 h a week on top of school and it is good to stay busy although i dont know how good his bad arm is, it always worth giving the job a shot

I feel for you it's so hard letting go of our cubs!
My mother taught me a very good life lesson.
She said " the best way to hold on to your children is with an open hand."
I'm glad I listened because I have three children and they have all chosen to live near us. We are so lucky to have all of our children and grandchildren so close by.
We wanted to protect them from every hurt but that's impossible and they will never learn to solve their problems. It's part of the learning curve we all have had to experience and the sooner we learn to deal with employers the better for us.
If a child never falls they never learn to get up and if they never fail they never learn from their own mistakes.
Frankie will handel HIS job in HIS way. If he is in trouble don't worry he will come to you sooner or later but it should be his choice.
He is still a kid and knows you are there for him.
Now go get that puppy, they require as much love an attention as you can possibly give. They love to be smothered with too much attention. LOL...LOL...
