<<<When Kirby was younger I had more dramatic angst, because I felt
the pressure
of relatives. It's all gone now. I'll probably feel it some more when
he's
18 and in college or not>>>>

Oh! We are there, again, not 18 but, "Your not gonna h/s high school?
Are you? (!)...And is that 9 yr. old reading YET!????....

FIL who I (or is it whom?) really adore is sincerely troubled, that
maybe his granddaughter (soon to be 15) will be cheated out of a
college education
because of the lack of *proper* transcripts...And sure his grandson
is bright but there is one problem, he can't read..FIL thinks it is
maybe because he is lazy and has a big brother to read things to
him...Hmmm.. I always thought it was a benefit that his older
brother had the patience and the kind heart to take time and help his
younger brother (setting a beautiful example for younger brother to
boot). So what I believe to be an assest is seen by others as a
liability....Go figure...
