I have social problems
Murf, interesting you ask about which stage of my mental development he thinks I am in. We went through the "you're an idiot" stage a couple years ago. He has grown up a bunch, especially the last year, even to the point of admitting how he wishes he would have listened to us. He's a good kid, she's a good mom, the dynamics of the interactions between the two of them make me tired. The 16 year old absorbs it all like a sponge.
The Good Lord blessed us, and I thank him daily.

I have social problems
We reached and agreement with my 20 year old daughter this summer. She is living in Buffalo on her own and working for an engineering firm for the summer. She and her Mother are talking on phone or on computer every 5 minutes - but they can't live together.
My 17 year old son spends most of his time on the computer while my wife and I are out doing manual labor. My wife says I'm too easy on him, I probably am. Things change very quickly, though, when I send them off to college. If they have no money saved they are on a starvation diet!

I have social problems
I was told a story once by my father-in-law about his son.
Said he went thru a stage where the old man knew nothing and was as dumb as a box of rocks. About 1 year after he moved out and got a job he was talkin one holiday and joked saying that DAD sure learned a heck of alot since I moved out, everything he is saying (now a day) seems to be right and he sure knows alot. Of course he was refering to the earlier situation when he knew eveything. Moved out and relized he knew JACK!! .

A bit of a sad string for me. The day I turned the maturity corner and was just catchig up with my Dad was the day he was killed. He crashed his Piper Archer in poor weather (similar circumstance to JFK Jr.). I have my Instrument Rating, so if I had been with on that trip...
I was comming home to ask his advise on the purchase of my first home.
I wish I had him back.

AV8R, sad story. You can never replace your Dad. I moved to my new home to be near my parents. My Dad died 1 month before I closed the deal on our home. He was a man who just tore things apart when they broke and fixed them - even though he had no special training. He could make anything last forever. He was a product of the depression. He never bought anything extravagant for himself - even though he had the money. I had great respect for him.

Back to the original post, itsgottabegreen, you have social problems. I fail to see what that has to do with injuring yourself. If you are not old enough to drink - then you are bound to have social problems. I had social problems until I was 28 at which time I got married.
I still have social problems but the wife I chose doesn't view them as social problems. Other people still do think I have social problems. I just don't worry about my social problems so much anymore. Keep a positive outlook and keep on truckin'

I agree with ncrunch, it comes down to 'mind over matter', if you don't mind, it doesn't matter!!!
Keep your chin and spirits up the rest will fall in line.
When I was doing my turf-grass courses I had a professor who told me to go back to growing corn because I wasn't going to make it in the turf industry, several years later he was fired from a consulting job because he miscalculated the ratios in an autmated feeding system and nearly killed about 100 acres of turf. The golf course owner brought me in to fix the problem.
The turf came back, the professor did not.
Best of luck.
