Elven Empire Quest (CK2)

Personality Traits:
Bossy - Logon can, and will, get what he wants, when he wants it. And he knows it. Has a gift for forcefulness and reason.

Genetic Traits:
Sylvan Beauty - Logon is an Elf, a supernaturally beautiful race blessed by the god of the Elves, Sylvas.
Genius - Logon is possessed of almost supernatural intellect and capacity to learn. +5 to all non-magic skills, +3 to all magic skills, improves chance of gaining skill points.
Hale - Logon is healthy and strong of body. Less likely to succumb to illness or suffer injury. As an Elf, his longer lifespan is hardly noticeable.
Those are really good traits mostly, but that Bossy is going to be a problem.
In this way, Logon learns early that Aldegard will give him almost anything he desires as soon as he finds himself fancying it. Assured of his specialness, he does not curb this behavior with others when he grows old enough for supervised play. Naturally, this leads to problems. Logon has begun striking, biting, and screaming down those who do not give what he wants; not only his rare age-mates who deny him, but also his aunt and grandmother, and a time or two even Aldegard herself...
As I said.
[] Let the boy be, he will grow out of it.

SV is doing parenting now.
Yeah, we're doomed.

[x] Try to steer his energy towards something more productive.

Hopefully this will teach him, not just push the issue aside temporarily.
 
Try the gentle approach before putting your foot down.
 
Brilliant in All Things
It took a few years, but Logon's behavior was unacceptable. You took, and you took, and you took, and each time, Logon was charged with task after task. "If you have such energy, you will use it rightly." Aldegard told him. "Passion is good, but passion and anger are not."

Logon was still demanding, to be sure, but each demand was accompanied by his insistence that he had done everything asked of him. He began to become even more stringent and particular. Not content to simply be a player amongst his age-mates, he would set himself up as the overseer of every game. Where before he would have become disagreeable and rowdy, he was now the consummate tattletale the moment he felt someone had not acted as they were meant to.

He had begun quoting old sayings about fairness and good behavior from Eris at Aldegard when she reneged on promises made to lovers to shut them up.

It was beginning to become annoying.

[] But not that annoying.
[] He will be powerful enough that he should know better. Emperors and Princes are not beholden to petty concerns of fairness.
[] He should realize that the point of a tradition is to make sure no one is pointlessly harmed, not to follow them for the sake of it.

Looks like our son's actions are becoming problematic.

You need to pick one option.

I'm almost impressed. You have every indication your kid is moving towards Just and you want to push him away from it. Way to (completely accidentally, I realize) play Aldegard straight.
