[QUOTE="happymomof2, post: 119010, member: 4270"] Thank you all for the replies. They are not allowed in his room - they know this. We just changed our house around a bit and difficult child's old room has been turned into a "game room". A sofa and a pool table are in there right now. Anytime I go around them or peek in on them - he says (in front of her) "mom we aren't going to do anything" with the whole frustrated tone of voice and rolling the eyes. You know what??? When he responds in that manner I want to tell him I really don't give a flying rats :censored2: if I embarrass you or not. So we will discuss this tomorrow evening in a little more detail. Yes, I know if they are going to do it they are going to do it - but dang it - not on my watch!! Her parents seem to "trust" there daughter more than I trust my son. Since they live right next door I know if the parents are home or not. He doesn't go over if they aren't and they also have the same rules. So we are on the same page with it. My difficult child says but when we are over there her mom doesn't check on us all the time. Which leads me to believe maybe - just maybe I am over doing it a bit. I can not see in that room from our den but the doors stay open and I can hear them. Today when things got too quiet in there I would get up and check on them. I know we will get through this phase too! [/QUOTE]
