Didn’t know that Dev could still grow : I thought he passed the growing age 😄 But I understand him : I was myself bullied because I had better grade by other bigger children. Sweet chapter 👍

Adding more stories to my reading list all the time. Thanks, @Myr.

Nope. Never have I ever enjoyed a root canal.

I'll send you some Nikes so you can catch up to Steve.

I don't know... You might be a bit surprised when you find out the reason Carl was let go. Soon we hope. Or not... Yes, at some point the years-long emotional stress had to come out. Of course, like most stress, this won't be the only time. Pete's story is far from over. I just hope you like the rest of the story.

Yes, you did. I completely forgot about that.

Another entertaining and enlightening chapter @Al Norris. Unfortunately I was not surprised at the "punishment" meted out to Carl by the police. It hardly seems worth the effort of Patrolman Stoner to interview Peter for his side of the story. Unless Patrolman Stoner carries some weight, and given his position I think it unlikely, the visit is merely an exercise in formality, so that whomever is in charge can "tick the box" to declare both parties in the "disagreement" had been interviewed. My favourite part of this chapter was when Uncle George drop all pretence of civility and stated exactly what he thought of Peter's mother "The fact is, I’ve been waiting for something like this to happen ever since you got here. You’ve lived for eight years with that monster, never shedding a tear." Well said Uncle George, accurate and succinct.

I liked that this chapter was realistic. Therapy doesn't just consist of crisis after crisis. There are periods of time when problems get resolved and things run relatively smoothly. Divorce is particularly bad for the children, especially where the divorce isn't amicable or when one parent breaks off contact with the children. It leaves them feeling so abandoned. Pleased to hear that Jason has moved to be closer to both families. It does seem that this period of calm is about to end.

Some amazing stories on that list.

Yay Mitch! Yay Coach and team! Things are looking up for Pete. After he, um, gets all the stitches out.

Al, I think I also comment in previous chapters how Mac explained that when he and Devin were younger, Devin would always stick up for him and even do the fighting when Mac was bullied. I think Devin was learning it wasn't the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog - or person.

Finally a breakdown, not pleasant but a necessity, now he has more or less got rid of his demon mother and can now build himself up to what he is and can be going into the future, a very enlightening chapter, a great story, thanks you

Please get better🤞

Transitioning into a Ninja wouldn't automatically supply him with the skills the Ninja had acquired after years of practice. It's different with animals, because he only acquires instinctive behavior, not learned behavior. That would be acquired over time. Yes, with some couples it is common to alternate invitations to dinner, but not with every person you have over for a meal. Eventually, however, you'd probably stop inviting those people over, unless you were merely doing it as a good Samaritan.

Having grown up in a loving home, and having done my best to provide one to my own kids, Pete’s mother’s behavior is unfathomable to me. I do know that it happens to too many children in real life. My heart goes out to Pete and every other victim of this type of parental abuse, real or fictional. I’ll be rooting for Pete through the rest of this story.

Please forgive me if this sounds ignorant but when I heard Devin talk about being bullied I was thinking if he can transform into animals and assume their characteristics and also turn into big humans I would think he could have turned into a ninja and retain the martial arts they know wouldn't it be possible? OK thanks for indulging me on that. This is how it was my family when we invited people over for dinner we didn't expect to be paid for dinner usually those same people inviting us back would be more than adequate.Is this practice common?

I apologize if it didn't come through in the chapter, but I've been dealing with some medical issues and sometimes my brain is a little foggy, due to the medications I'm taking.

Hmm, it makes sense, now. It just didn't come across to me as that being the reason.

Yes, a very relaxed holiday and Devin is getting the present he always wanted, to be able to grow a few more inches until he's the same height as his dad, Gramps, and Pops, and only an inch shorter than Mac. Probably the best Christmas present he could have received.
