[QUOTE="keista, post: 470098, member: 11965"] WTF? Sorry, I cannot find a valid reason why this mom would want to keep this a secret from the girlfriend's mom, except, of course, the fact that she is an enabler. I can totally get your son or sneaky kid asking this, but the mom? What the heck does she have to lose out of girlfriend's mom being told? As far as you are concerned, you made a pact with neighbor's mother and you should keep it. I don't see how NOT telling would be showing compassion to sneaky kid. in my opinion it's just hiding his undesirable actions (however they are motivated) Just because his mother wants to enable or try to be in denial of the severity of his issues, doesn't mean you have to. Telling girlfriend's mom is not gossiping, it is not advertising the issue, it is not anything bad at all. It is simply keeping your word and protecting girlfriend. As far a s a safer environment for your son - do you have any options? If not just keep doing what you are doing. If the other kid, or any others you don't want around come to your property, call the police and get a no trespass order issued. Not much else you can do to keep them away, but doing whatever you can do legally does send a clear message. It's up to them and your difficult child to understand that message. [/QUOTE]
