Oh.  That's okay.  :>
 
 K>That's a precog/clairvoyant mix for sure..... she may have been

 K>the two has made me a bit more suicide-prone than most ADDers (so
 K>watch him for that), and a bit more sensitive than most empathic

 MP> Perhaps you are "too sensitive"?
Hold it RIGHT there.  As my friend Rabbi Gershom said to me once (and he
also has ADHD):  "Maybe you're not sensitive enough!"
 
 K> MP> However, my son shows no sign of being psychic so far. But, we'll
 K>see. 
 
 K>Is he entering puberty yet?  That's when they start to *really* show

 K>are both precogs, but we're different as she dreams & I answer
 K>specific questions.) Watch for things that "Mom" used to do, and don't
 K>put him down for being this way.  I've found that more & more psychic
 K>folk are coming out of the  woodwork lately, and I've had a vague
 K>hunch (probably my precog trying to hit me over the head) that this
 K>planet will need every single one in the future. 
 MP> He is into puberty in a big way. He sees that girls ARE different.
 
Well, as I said.....  just don't put him down because he does things that
are "different" from most folk or teens.
 K>Want to keep going on this, or shall we stop?  I'm glad you're not
 K>rejecting the idea outright.
 MP> Hmmm...maybe you're not a psychic as you thought.... :)
nonononono......  I know my Gifts.  Being psychic is like any other 
physical trait:  no two people have the same combination of Gifts.  I'm
*not* a telepath (person who reads minds), so I have to ask to know.
So.......?
Blessings,
Ketira
