[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like Alex had events in his life that forced him to grow up fast, or at least faster than the typical American teenager. Throughout the world, people Alex's age hold jobs, start families, not to mention go to college far away from home. He sounds like an intelligent and responsible young man who has never been involved in any serious trouble. I understand that your situation is complicated by the fact that, after being separated from him for so many years, you want to make the most of the two short years left. Also that you have to be mindfull of the kind of example you are setting for the other children int he household, who may not be as mature. But everything you said makes me think that treating Alex like the typical middle class American 16-year-old is only going to backfire.[/quote]
