[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 120000, member: 1233"] Marg, The dad who said that was a total difficult child as a teen, then met his wife and straightened out. Their kids were very disbelieving that dad could top any of their rudeness, or defiance. This was one of the opening shots of a very short battle. Dad and Mom won because the kids were just wannabe difficult children, not real ones. But I forever remember this when dealing with our kids. My hubby has threatened to sing Barney Songs over the intercom at school to difficult child when he was misbehaving - school LOVED the idea, wished more parents would "offer" to do stuff like that. But we haven 't had the girlfriend issues. My parents have this, but difficult child and his new girlfriend are pretty well behaved, amazingly. And she is SMART!!!! With a family with rules and values similar to ours. So we got lucky!!! [/QUOTE]
