[QUOTE="mom_to_3, post: 222079, member: 30"] Well, that other boy is certainly determined isn't he? I really think this is more about your son though. Have you told [B]him[/B] that you do not want him to have any contact with the other boy? Have you instructed your son to, in your presence, tell this boy not to call or have any kind of contact with your son? This other boy would not be calling your son if there wasn't something in it for [B]him.[/B] Meaning, your son is giving back, something [B]and WANTS[/B] contact with this boy. Your boy is the one that needs to have the limits set on him. Unplugging the phone is helpful, but you also need to set down the rules for him and enforce them. I can imagine your son won't be thrilled will he? I [B]know[/B] for a fact that it is wrong to use CPS in this way. CPS is who you would call if you had concerns about abuse or neglect of a child. While making 20 phone calls to your house in 2 hours is obnoxious, it's not illegal, and really isn't harming anyone. Your anxiety regarding your son and the decisions you are facing is palpable. I remember feeling that way when I was living the worst of our times with our difficult child. It is not something I would ever want to feel again. I do hope you can find some sort of resolution for the both of you soon. Peace to you! [/QUOTE]
