[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 167269, member: 1514"] Ok I have a question. Number 1 wants to go to juvie instead of being on house arrest right? Why? How long is he supposed to be on house arrest for? How long was he in juvie for before they sentenced him to house arrest? I have a theory here...bear with me. If he was only in detention for a short time then he didnt get a good example of what it is like. Also...I dont know where you live but in some states 17 is considered an adult and 17 year olds have their own wing of the adult jail instead of the juvenile detention center. Trust me...those teens would give their eye teeth for house arrest. If his time at juvy is longer than his house arrest time...then call the PO and have them take him back. If his juvy time would be longer than the time that he was there before...have them take him back. If you can...ask them to take him to a harsher detention center. I know...that goes against our grain as loving mommy's but he wants to play hard ball...lets play. Maybe call the PO and see if they have a Scared Straight program near you. Let him see what its like when he gets to be just 1 year older than he is now. Cory is supposed to be starting house arrest in the next few days...when a box comes open. If he even opened his mouth to suggest that he was going to make me miserable because of what he has done...I would be on the phone revoking his house arrest privileges so fast his head would spin. He would spend the next 14 to 18 months in the state pen. My son...like your son...did the crime. They get to be punished...not us. [/QUOTE]
