My 11 year old son is in bed and I am finishing saying goodnight to him. Lights are out and he is lying down and I'm just getting off the bed. He always likes to know the lay of the next day and we were talking about it. He heard frustration in my voice when talking about a close friend - someone he and I are in contact with daily. I felt cautious about influencing his opinion of this person. He asked what was up. I told him I really shouldn't talk about it . He replied to me " mom, but I can give you empathy, or even get those cards out, if you want". What a kid! We did talk and it was a great empathy and honesty dance!
