[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 84851, member: 3450"] Hi Jo, I think one of the most important things is that you put things in the contract that you feel you can actually carry through on if she violates them. Also, what is important to one person may not be to another so go by what you are comfortable with. If you don't really care about having a curfew then don't put it in there just because it seems like something you ought to care about. I have found that if I am doing things because it seems like what a parent should do I am not able to follow through when that time comes because they aren't things that actually matter to me--does this make any sense? I don't think I am explaining very well, hopefully you get it anyway! I do know my dtr never cared about contracts--she just did whatever she wanted anyway--she would agree to anything, she just did what she wanted. Well, she no longer lives with me and never will again.... Jane [/QUOTE]
