Ali,
You may want to think about getting Kermit into whatever Tai Chi Whatsit class you do. I know a bit about aggression, and I think he's at that age where he's wanting to work a lot of it out on something. He's too well-behaved to start a fight with any of the other kids his size, and he's way too overprotective of everyone to even roughhouse with them. But the way he went off on that demon whatchamacallit the other day got me to thinking he may have some issues to work out.
By the way, if he ever decides to ditch the whole "productive member of society" thing and live a life as a disreputable riverboat gambler, kid's got the most natural poker face I've ever seen. He's cleaned me out of an entire bag of pretzel chips already. Wake up soon?
