[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are more educated about types of substances these days. I do think he would say psilocybin, especially after receiving a toxicology report and talking to doctors. Seems pretty nitpicky.

Also, Kathy is his ex and they share 3 kids, so maybe he’s a little resentful about her boyfriend—and that she was the parent in charge when the accident happened. They got divorced for a reason, after all. But I def wouldn’t call it a tirade. [/quote]

+1, I don't find it weird that he would have some complaints about her given the situation. Wyatt took off after arguing with Kathy, and wound up in the hospital. I think you'd need to be close to a saint not to have some questions and possible resentments toward your co-parent in that situation, and Aiden actually expressed them in a fairly mild way.

I also get the sense from Aiden's behavior that he's the kind of parent who never really gets into arguments with his kid. Like he knows how to diffuse conflict so it doesn't get ramped up. If Kathy is the opposite, and engages more directly in conflict with boys, that is likely to be a huge source of disagreement between Aiden and Kathy. I say this as a parent who is like Aiden, but has a spouse who is like I'm supposing Kathy is. My kid would never storm out of the house during/after an argument with me, because I'd never let it get that far -- I have tools I'd used to take a break, cool it off, find something to agree on, etc. But I could see this happening with my DH, because he takes the hurtful things kids say when they are mad to heart, and he gets mad, and the whole thing amplifies. We're married, and this is a source of challenge for us. If we were divorced and one of our kids got really hurt after an argument that ramped up like that, you bet I'd be resentful towards him.
