[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 505807, member: 6705"] We had this happen once with Onyxx. There are several malls in the area - we live about 1 mile from one, there's one about 6 miles, and one about 12 miles. I dropped her at the close one. Friend's Mom was to bring her home in 3 hours (9 PM). At 8:58 she called and demanded I come get her. From the one 12 miles away. I asked how she got there and "a friend drove". I told her that her friend better drive her back, because she did not have PERMISSION to go to that mall, and it was BED TIME for Jett. I wasn't leaving. husband was at work. And she was going to be late getting home. So she could count on NOT going out the next night. husband got off work early... Got home at 9:45... No Onyxx. He refused to go get her, too. She came in at 10:30 wanting to start a fight. He looked at her and said something to the effect of - fine, you blew it, you can accept your consequences or we can call the cops. She shut up. (This was when he was starting to get the idea...) Now for Jett? 24 hours notice for an overnight or a party where he has to take something. If less than that? The answer is automatically NO.
