Well, we have been discussing Ryan.  And justifiably so.  We aren't discussing
"Ryan as son of", but "Ryan, staff member".  I'm really happy to have seen
how Ryan has gone from troublemaker to staff member.  But like the rest of
us, it will take him some adjustments to really get into the being a staffer.

Aliz, I think you are doing a fine job as a parent.  But we're talking about
how Ryan handles responsibilities as a Grex staffer, which is very definitely
a Grex staff issue, and because of the "trust" issues is a Coop issue as well.
This is quite a vote of confidence in Ryan, in giving him some fairly adult
responsibilities.
