Lots of really great feedback here. Thank you! I will work on talking through / role modeling some of these issues with him. I may start by switching up who sits where at the dinner table. We've always sat in the same seats, for 10 years now. The kids sit in the same side of the car when we drive, because carseat for YDS. I can maybe switch him to the other side in one vehicle though, so he's not always behind the driver.
