Would this be a good idea? What if he says no thanks?

Hmm, I'm not sure about what to do for your situation. Sounds like it will add some material to work with in your work together though, what with helping to explain the transference. It seems asking a lot for an already busy t to do reading in their spare time though.

In my situation with my ex-t, I mailed him my copy of "One Child" by Torey Hayden. It had passages that I underlined and highlighted in it. I had emailed him previously telling him about it, and how specifically, all of chapter 10 really reminded me of him. Anyways, I don't actually expect him to read it or anything. It's a gift. His choice what he does (or does not) do with it really.
