[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 353993, member: 805"] k, I think this is where the big issue is, and I think you recognize it as well. He has absolutely no respect for your authority whatsoever (not to mention the rules of school or the court system). Compliance sometimes is not really compliance. It's him doing what he wants, when he wants, period. If he has such total disregard for your rules now, what will your situation look like a year from now when he's bigger and more ingrained into his independent lifestyle? What kind of respect can you, as his parent, be assured when it comes to the more complicated issues of 16 and 17? I think that is what would be uppermost in my mind were I in your position.
