[QUOTE="mrscatinthehat, post: 90911, member: 2063"] Well certain things I allow certain others I don't. Having said that it also depends on when where etc. Do you want to have this battle? Me I would on a bunch of it. I mean if he is talking at home that is one thing. In public a whole other. Is there a way to let him know if he doesn't behave properly in public he just won't go. I realize at 17 that is a challenge in some ways. If it is one of the things he says that is too offensive I would try (and I am not very good at it) to stay calm and say you will not be a part of that which includes being present for it. Then walk away. I know easier said than done. The big thing to remember he is embarrassing himself. Natural consequences can happen from that. Let them (as long as he doesn't get hurt). Beth [/QUOTE]
