Maybe once in a great while. I wish his Dad would just back off and (as long as he doesn't get hurt) let him make his own mistakes. How else is he going to learn?

Janet , Sheryl hit it on the head your both wonderful caring parents, as I am reading your above post, if I may say so even though it may not be . It sounds like there is favoritism. Your husband probably feels left out, because it your eyes your son does no wrong. Rick sounds very mature for his age, but to your husband he is still a kid. Yes he does have to make mistakes, this is the way we all learn.
