Mr Dedalos, the one thing clear from your post is this:
YOU are insecure. You will deny this, but it's true.
If not, something as positive a post as this would not have intimidated you so badly.
You clearly don't know your sports either. MMA is man chess. Eating cheese wiz watching re runs of sex in the city and growing fatter is probably great fun for you and yours. We like things a bit more exciting. No offense
FYI: That same son was in gifted classes from K to graduation, he won almost every chess tournament he entered. He owns his own car, paid for *better than my own* buying his own house *only 23 yrs* He is a hard worker more than any I know. You probably still rent and twice his age no doubt
Again, no offense, nice trailers are hard to come by I hear.
Not good enough you say?
All my kids qualified for the advanced classes in, my oldest was the youngest person at the time he was accepted to NOCCA. He is now a writer with many publications and 4 books for sale on amazon *he writes all kinds, but mostly sci-fi* He travels all over the world, my last birthday gift he sent from the forbidden palace in China. * I still think that's pretty damn cool *
I taught him how to play the piano & guitar,now he also composes his own music. I play most instruments in popular music, and shared that with all of my kids.
I only started the post due to how proud I am of him and how hard he works at everything he does... thanks for the excuse to share more
