DS has always been sweet, but a bit moody. Puberty has exacerbated his girlie moods. He cries and laughs immediately afterwards. Mostly I think it's for show, but he does lose control sometimes. When he gets sassy, I tell him, "I love you enough to set boundaries. You crossed the acceptable behavior line." He usually apologizes (or cries!).

It's a sweet age. They're independent without being too big for their proverbial britches :)

at that age, was well a pain, needing much more space. He grew out of that for a while and now it seems to have come back again.

Dear Lux,
There was a great thread a couple of years ago about 10 yo boys, initiated by Colleen. I copy/pasted the responses, but not the contributors' names, into a long Word document. I would be happy to send that to you if you can receive emails, or if you will post your email addy. Let me know if you are interested.
