It's a Boy (In Progress)!

For his most recent addition to his blog, Cody "Micajah" Bye discusses his joy at the thought of having a son and his fear for the young man's future. Throughout the blog, Cody asks a number of questions that new parents are often caught wondering and asks for the readers help with understanding the many aspects of raising a child in a world of gaming. For those that don't have children, Cody also wonder what helped shape your past and how their parents influenced them.

What sort of dreams or desires will my son aspire to? Where will his future take him? Even though he's still just 2 pounds of squirming muscle in my wife's womb, I can't help but anticipate that he may almost be overwhelmed by the different options presented to him by his father, mother, and grandparents. How does a parent help direct a child's interests without manipulating their lives? Where does influence stop and control begin?
