[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 227520, member: 3419"] [I]cell phone; we pay for it and could easily cancel the service. However, I have hesitated because it has been my way of getting in touch with my son[/I] Yes, this is a hard one. I know the feeling. Right now, my difficult child is only 12 and uses his friends' house phones to call me. So far, so good. [I]I had texted him and let him know there would be consequences for his actions.[/I] Excellent! He will probably get a bit more violent, temporarily, until he realizes that doesn't get him anywhere. Just be prepared, and don't back down. It's your house. [I]He is not the same kid he used to be. Substance abuse probably has a lot to do with his personality changes.[/I] Yes, what a shame. If only they could see themselves as we see them. :( [/QUOTE]
