[QUOTE="sillydog, post: 26777, member: 3552"] How sad. I don't think you, as the grandparent of a child this age (teen?) can make a lot of difference unless you are willing to let him know you WoN't LIVE THIS WAY. And, that it is not acceptable, family, or socially to allow him to live this way. You do him a disservice to allow him to get away with this behavior. If you will not teach him that the law is the consequence for such behavior at home, then who will have to teach him the consequence for such behavior in society? Isn't it your duty to teach him right from wronge, and what happens to people who behave in such a way? This is a very tough way to have to teach a lesson, but isn't it better he learn it from you than from a stranger? Isn't it better he is able to come home to you after learning this hard lesson, be angry at you, but learn from it and never do it again? Who cares if he is angry or resentful of you if he learns and becomes a functioning and contributing, and grateful human being. [/QUOTE]
