So, yes.

Right.

And I'll give, again, I'll give a personal example here because that relates to the scaffolding too and engagement and how parenting shifts based on this is so with our 18 year old artist who is close to the finish line of high school, which is going to be a huge feat for all of us and deciding between a few schools and having to do some online classes and

and needing to know some admissions requirements in order to figure out if he could change or drop classes or graduate from one of the two high schools that he's attending, he needed to gather some information.

And what my wife and I felt and what guidance we were getting from particular people is, hey, let him make the phone call to talk through these scenarios with both admissions departments so he can decide and you can feel if he's engaged enough with his decision to make these other decisions.

Kind of like, this is on him.

Now, of course, an artist, dyslexic, dysgraphic with executive functioning challenges.

So I was taking that approach and guiding him along the way.

And at one point, I just realized, you know what, he is totally working hard on catching up on his online classes.

He is totally invested in all of his art projects that he's doing.

He is really excited about going to one of these two schools.

And he just said, I don't have time to make these calls.

And I even like wrote out the questions for him.

And I don't see why I need to make the call.

I just need to know the information so I can make my decision.

Can you do this for me?

And it was interesting because I actually wanted to initially just because I wanted to help get the question so we all could stop worrying about which way to go and all of these different things that we've been talking a lot about.

But I'm like, no, no, no.

I need him.

It's like he needs to step up and take ownership of this.
