[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 340348, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]klmno, my take on this is difficult child trying to fit in somewhere, anywhere once he's released (& this is only what I'm getting out of what you've said; wasn't there for the discussion) I also assume a great deal of this could be anxiety related ~ I would be surprised & a bit nervous if difficult child didn't exhibit some type of anxiety at this transition in his life. I expect he's terrified. Saying that, before kt was released we spent a good deal of time in family sessions discussing the rules & expectations kt would have to meet. Addionally, kt was informed of my "line in the sand", if you will. Once she steps over that line she will be placed out of the home. Not saying that will be your course of action, just suggesting that difficult child knows before he arrives home what is expected, what privileges he will have to earn & how he can earn them. difficult child cannot be telling you ~ you must tell him what the game plan is & how it will be played. Just a few things for you to consider. Keep us updated on the transition home. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
