[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 109479, member: 84"] Update I gave up on Nichole coming home at 4 am when husband got up to go to work. Just got off the phone with Nichole. (she's still at bfs house) Seems all is honky dory. I told her this morning she just had Strike One. Not coming home at night around here is a Moving Out offense, most especially when one does not call to inform Me that they won't be home for a very good reason. Nichole said But Mom I didn't want to walk home at 2am. I said well gee, you had no trouble walking over there at almost 1am, so what's the difference? Strike one stands. Two more and you'll be finding your own place to live. Nichole asked me not long ago, when she was asking permission to sleep over at boyfriend's house because they had to get up to go out of town at the crack of dawn, why the No Sleeping Over Elswhere Rule existed. I told her that if a grown child can find other places to sleep then they have no more use for my hospitality. If you can sleep elsewhere, you can live elsewhere. Yes, I think this was an attempt to get boyfriend to show her some attention, that he really does care about her. boyfriend has slacked off seriously in this dept since the first yr they were dating. I try not to get involved in Nichole's relationship with boyfriend. But I do insert information about relationships in general from time to time. Nichole reminds me of a Jr High kid when it comes to male/female relationships. She's sort of lagging there. So I give her info I'd have given her in Jr High about such things. Like the whole "you don't go to the movies with one guy when you're in a relationship with another" thing last night. I give her the info, just as I do for easy child and Travis. It's up to her whether or not she wants to use it. [/QUOTE]
