[QUOTE="CAmom, post: 147918, member: 1835"] Star, you said that so well, and I agree.. My son ALWAYS, when given an inch, will take a mile, and I've learned to keep my guard up. I guess it's not so much the three nights he was gone (because he did text me every night by 11:00 pm to let us know he was staying out... this is one of our house rules), but the fact that I'm always a bit on edge to protect myself from being taken advantage of, just in case. So, when he came in a little while ago and asked me what he did wrong, I couldn't really say much more than that it bothers me when the only sign I see of him in three days is a spotty shower door, greasy fingerprints on the microwave, and smelly socks in the hamper. And, I left it at that. And, it's the same in my house as yours... my son is operating at more of a 16 or 17-year-old level, maturity-wise, than his true age of 18 1/2. [/QUOTE]
